Rare brushed aluminium Fog & Mørup Semi pendant light for Norway, 1960s
Rare brushed aluminium Fog & Mørup Semi pendant light for Norway, 1960s
The Semi was designed in 1967 by Claus Bonderup and Torsten Thorup and was one of Fog & Mørup's most enduringly popular lamps. This example is a rare version in brushed aluminium, created for the Norwegian market and retaining its original Fog & Mørup label with the N symbol denoting its Norwegian provenance. The lamp has a diameter of 47cm diameter and is in superb condition. There are two barely visible hairline streaks of darker colour (see accompanying photos), which inspection with a magnifying glass confirms are not scratches or any other kind of disruption to the surface texture and are very likely to have been created during production.
