Pendant light "Saturn" by Jo Hammerborg for Fog & Mørup. Denmark 1960s

The Saturn was one of Jo Hammerborg's first designs when he took over as director of design at Fog & Mørup at the end of the 1950s and began the process of transforming the company's product lines, introducing a new modernist aesthetic that was strongly informed by his previous work as a silversmith at Georg Jensen. The Saturn's banded design and distinctive combination of copper, black and orange became a theme that Hammerborg explored in many variations of proportion during his 20-year incumbency at Fog and Morup. Measuring 30 cm in diameter and 19 cm in height, the lamp retain its original glare-cancelling perspex plates and is in good condition with some patina on the copper parts as seen in the images. Rewired for safety. Standard E27 light bulb socket.
