The company ANVIA was founded in 1909 by a German entrepreneur, Max Liebert.
The 50s - 60s are the glory days when Industrial designer JJM Hoogervorst from Haarlem manages to create dozens of top designs. In the 80s Anvia disappears. Anvia was resurrected in 2014 and has produced several gems again in recent years. Not this desk model yet, but they already have a floor lamp nr. 1505 with the horseshoe.
