Description
Horák's world is as if it were not of this world... floor lamps transform into carnivorous plants but despite all the fantasy and poetry, his creations are also endowed with functionality as well as atmosphere, fantasies and dreams.
The "Silueta" floor lamp is characterized by a patinated, sandblasted and perforated iron structure which produces fascinating light effects.
Made entirely by hand, it is considered a true work of art.
Horak is a master of metal; no one else can bend, assemble and weld iron and aluminum pipes and metal plates into new shapes like he does... however, the delicate and creative violence he exerts on the metal with increasing mastery is only one aspect of his art, because Horák is also a master of the surface.
with various color treatments and pigmented layers he modifies and enriches the surfaces of his metals and in the end nothing remains as it was... the materials he works with transform like a cameo into other forms, and no fragment resembles another.
Every single object designed by Bohuslav (Boda) Horak was made by hand, whereby the final touch is given by the designer himself so that each piece is a unique example... for this reason please allow measurements and colors that you differ from the illustrations in his catalogue.
Boda Horak participates in prestigious exhibitions in some famous international galleries such as Binnen in Amsterdam, Jannone in Milan, Ferrero1947 in Turin, the Moss Gallery in New York, the Limn gallery in San Francisco, UNICA Las Vegas, etc…
His works are regularly published at home and abroad, in many art magazines and books, and are also exhibited in the most famous design and applied art museums in the world and in some private collections.
Anthologie Quartett creates a vast range of products specifically created by architects and designers who are characterized by a very different or even, often, completely antithetical design philosophy.
Anthologie Quartett was born in September 1983 in Hannover, as a gallery that collects pieces of architecture, design, fashion and art.
Il mondo di Horák è come se non fosse di questo mondo... le lampade da terra si trasformano in piante carnivore ma nonostante tutta la fantasia e la poesia, le sue creazioni sono anche dotate di funzionalità oltre che di atmosfere, fantasie e sogni.
La lampada da Terra "Silueta" è caratterizzata da una struttura in ferro patinato, sabbiato e traforato che produce affascinanti effetti di luce.
Realizzata interamente a mano, è considerata una vera e propria opera d'arte.
Horàk è un maestro del metallo; nessun altro può piegare, assemblare e saldare tubi di ferro e alluminio e piastre metalliche in nuove forme come fa lui... tuttavia, la violenza delicata e creativa che esercita sul metallo con crescente maestria è solo un aspetto della sua arte, perché Horák è anche un maestro della superficie.
con vari trattamenti cromatici e strati pigmentati modifica e arricchisce le superfici dei suoi metalli e alla fine nulla rimane com'era... i materiali con cui lavora si trasformano come un cammeo in altre forme, e nessun frammento somiglia a un altro.
Ogni singolo oggetto disegnato da Bohuslav (Boda) Horak è stato realizzato a mano, per cui il tocco finale è dato dal designer stesso in modo che ogni pezzo sia un esemplare unico... per questo motivo si prega di consentire misure e colori che si discostano dalle illustrazioni del suo catalogo.
Boda Horak partecipa a prestigiose mostre in alcune famose gallerie internazionali come Binnen ad Amsterdam, Jannone a Milano, Ferrero1947 a Torino, la Galleria Moss a New York, la galleria Limn a San Francisco, UNICA Las Vegas, ecc…
Le sue opere sono regolarmente pubblicate in patria e all’estero, in molte riviste e libri d’arte e sono anche esposte nei più famosi musei di design e arte applicata del mondo e in alcune collezioni private.
Anthologie Quartett realizza una vasta gamma di prodotti appositamente creati da architetti e designer che si contraddistinguono per una filosofia del design molto diversa o addirittura, spesse volte, del tutto antitetica.
Anthologie Quartett nasce nel Settembre del 1983 ad Hannover, come galleria che colleziona pezzi di architettura, design, moda ed arte.

Last updated: 17th October 2024
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.
Please note that certain items are non-refundable, including those that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to your specific requirements.
Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
