Copper Diskos pendant light by Jo Hammerborg for Fog & Mørup, 1960s

Resembling a minimalist flying saucer, Jo Hammerborg's mid-1960s Diskos design is a space-age classic and continues his theme of producing lights in three versions finished in glossy spun copper, brass and aluminium respectively. This example is the exceedingly rare copper version and comes complete with glare-cancelling louvre. The lamp is in very good condition overall with moderate wear in the form of a few scuffs and a 5 cm stretch of small bumps along the outer edge (see photos). It takes two standard Edison screw bulbs max 60w (not supplied) and has a diameter of 47 cm and a height of 9 cm.
