A 1950s-era InfraPhil 7529 heat lamp designed in the mid to late 1940s for PHILIPS & CO. and often wrongly attributed to Charlotte Perriand (see bio). InfraPhil light bulbs were designed to emit a maximum yield of short-wave infrared radiation as a substitute for natural sunlight. They were intended to be used therapeutically to relieve muscular pain. This lamp is complete and comes with its original 150w, 3-pin bayonet-style infrared bulb, which is still in working order. An enduring icon of 20th Century Modern industrial design.

This model also has a built-in hanger that allows it to be mounted as a sconce. If use as a standard light fixture is preferred, the infrared bulb may be swapped out for any other bulb that has a matching 3-pin bayonet fitting. The lamp housing is made from ivory-enameled metal and can be rotated 360 degrees on its base and tilted up and down using the red anodized aluminum ring. It retains its original European cord and plug (free adapter available upon request) and the PHILIPS & CO. decal on the base.


CHARLOTTE PERRIAND (1903-1999) was a renowned French architect and designer who burst onto the French design scene in her early 20s, seemingly undeterred by obstacles in an era when even the progressive Bauhaus school barred women from architecture and furniture design courses. She studied under Maurice Dufrêne (1876-1955) at the École de l’Union Centrale des art Décoratifs, entering into a competition at the 1925 Expo des Arts Décoratifs and gaining critical acclaim for her exhibition at the Salon d'Automne in 1927. In the same year, inspired by his architectural treatises, Perriand persuaded Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (1887-1965), known as Le Corbusier, to employ her. He put her in charge of prototype production and public presentations of the studio’s work. In collaboration with Charles-Édouard’s cousin Pierre Jeanneret (1896-1967), Perriand developed a series of tubular steel chairs, which are still hailed as icons of the machine age.

From 1927 until 1937, Perriand worked with Le Corbusier, designing furniture and domestic interiors. During this period, she helped found the Union des Artistes Modernes (UAM), a movement made up of decorative artists and architects who tried to make their work more accessible by using low-cost materials. In 1937 she left Le Corbusier to start a successful career of her own with work aimed at creating functional living spaces in the belief that better design helps to create a better society.

Perriand traveled to Japan in 1940 as an official advisor on industrial design. When Japan joined the war, she found herself trapped in Vietnam until 1946. During this exile, she studied local techniques of woodwork and weaving. She returned to France, intent on introducing straw and bamboo to modern design.

Back in France, Perriand continued her work with Le Corbusier and Jean Prouvé (1901-1984). She was integral to the design of Le Corbusier’s Unité d’Habitation in Marseille. In 1949, she participated in the inaugural exhibition of the Formes Utiles movement, a French design group that evolved out of the UAM. It took place in the Museé des Arts Décoratifs (Museum of Decorative Arts), and Perriand curated the artwork and display objects, among which was a Philips InfraPhil heat lamp model 7525.

Perriand remained an influential figure in the modern movement until her death in 1999 in Paris at the age of 96. A retrospective exhibition was held in her honor in the Centre Pompidou in Paris in 2005 that included a compilation from the 1949 Formes Utiles show. However, at the 2005 exhibition and in the book published for the event, the objects Perriand had previously curated in 1949 were mistakenly identified as her designs. Ever since then, the Philips InfraPhil heat lamp model 7525 and its successors are commonly attributed to her. The actual designer of the early Philips InfraPhil heat lamps is unknown but was most likely an employee of Philips.

Good product
Size: 2.5", Style: Closed Hooks
Strong magnets that stay on wall once applied. Definitely holds the weight that it says it holds on the product. Good size to hold my halters in my barn. Would buy again and I think the price was a little high for this product, but it was worth the purchase.

Versatile and Sturdy Storage Solution
Size: 2.5" & 4" - 4 Pack, Style: Open Hooks, Size: 2.5" & 4" - 4 Pack, Style: Open Hooks
The GATOR MAGNETICS Open Storage Hook has been a great (pricey) solution for adding hooks that are strong and useful. Its simple yet robust design makes it incredibly versatile for various uses around the house. The hook feels sturdy and durable, capable of holding a surprising amount of weight without bending or warping. Installation is as easy as blinking your eyes; the really strong magnets allow for easy attachment to any magnetic surface, and the hook remains securely in place. I've used it for hanging lights and bags in my office and bedroom, providing a neat and accessible storage solution in any setting. The open design ensures quick access to items without the hassle of removing them from a closed loop, which is a fantastic convenience. The magnet seems to be protected well enough with a rubber surface so that I don't have to worry about damaging my tables that I have attached these hooks. In terms of value for money, this storage hook is pricey but no competition that I've seen with the same level of durability and convenience. I'm impressed by its performance and versatility, making it a must-have for anyone looking to organize their space efficiently. Pros: Sturdy and durable build quality Easy magnetic installation on metal surfaces Versatile usage for multiple items Convenient open design for quick access Doesn't damage surfaces Cons: None that I've encountered so far! (Maybe price?) Overall, I highly recommend the GATOR MAGNETICS Open Storage Hook for its durability, versatility, and exceptional functionality. It's a small investment that brings significant organization and efficiency to any space.

Amazingly strong and versatile
Size: 2.5" & 4" - 4 Pack, Style: Open Hooks
I saw these advertised on Instagram and immediately purchased a 4 pack. I really wanted them to work but after trying them on 4-5 different steel surfaces I couldn't'[t get any of them to stick well or hold anything heavier than a wet towel. Maybe a bad batch? A shame. The company took the time to reach out to me after seeing my first review where the hooks wound stick to metal poles in my studio. I definitely was not expecting them to reach out to address my issues with the hooks I purchased and returned. After trying the new replacement hooks out I now could not be more impressed! They are strong, well made and easy to use. The hooks and the magnetic baskets are phenomenal and I highly recommend them. I did a test with the hooks, which held a 75 lb weight with no issues on the side of a craftsman tool box! It seems that any early product issues are fixed. The customer service is fantastic and they really took the time to address the issues and keep their customers coming back happy. Well done! Gator Magnetics is definitely a class act in my book!

25 lb hanger doesn’t hold my Echo trimmer
Size: 4" - Red, Style: Open Hooks, Size: 4" - Red, Style: Open Hooks
Purchased the holders for my Echo trimmer and hedger but the tines are not long enough to hold the Echos. A picture in the description shows a gas powered unit hanging which is why I bought the hangers. Buy the larger 45 lb hanger for trimmers. Nice hook but I’ll probably send them back if i can’t find a use for them soon.
