A vintage 1960s Søværnspendel pendant light designed by architect Jørn Utzon and produced by Louis Poulsen

This vintage 1960s Søværnspendel ceiling light, a timeless classic originally designed in the 1950s for Danish lighting company Nordisk Solar Compagni by legendary Sydney Opera House architect Jørn Utzon, is in very good condition, and its bright lipstick-red paintwork has lost none of its glossiness, with only one or two marks to bear witness to its vintage character. The light has a diameter of 28cm (11 inches) and a height of 23cm (9 inches).

The Søværnspendel was produced by Louis Poulsen in various colours at different periods between the late 1950s and the 1970s. Versions in red, black and aquamarine were produced during the very late 1960s as part of Poulsen's Young Line range, in which a number of Poulsen lights, including Verner Panton's Topan and Flower Pot lamps, were offered in a coordinated selection of colours. The Young Line range can be seen in the 1969 Louis Poulsen advert reproduced in the final image below.
