Sven Middelboe for Nordisk Solar Verona light

Of all the lights produced at Nordisk Solar Compagni during its heyday, the most enduring has proved to be Sven Middelboe's 1970's Verona, which won several awards including an iF product design award and has become a timeless classic of Danish lighting. The Verona's popularity rests upon both its obvious aesthetic qualities and its superb functionality – namely its ability to cast an effective light that is fully shielded from glare. The Verona has been reproduced and copied by several other manufacturers since Nordisk Solar Compagni ceased production in the 1980s, but this stunning eight-layer 40cm diameter example is an original Nordisk Solar Compagni version. In classic white with the signature Middelboe anti-glare dove grey interior face to the lowest layer, the light is in near-mint condition throughout and retains its original Nordisk Solar Compagni label. The original two-core cable and bulb holder have been replaced with brand new three-core (i.e. earthed) versions to meet or exceed current UK and international regulations.
