Lightness of form and unique timeless design.

This is a unique pendant lamp, based on two quarter-circles put together, back-to-back. Designed in 1968, it's distinctive arch-shaped, enamelled metal shade creates a diffused, cone-shaped light, ideal over a dining table or kitchen work surface. A reaction against the soft organic forms that was dominating Denmark at the time, the designers wanted to create a lamp that incorporated sharp, clean lines and a geometric shape. 

Their design was submitted for a competition at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture and won first prize. In the 1980s the pendant achieved great success and became, at that time, the best-selling Danish design and gained worldwide recognition and iconic status.
