Fog & Mørup produced Orient pendants in two different sizes. This version is thr minor and is made from black lacquered aluminum, painted white on the inside to maximize the light. The lamp has a wooden top, which carries the curve of the teardrop-shaped pendant right up to the tip of the lamp. The lampshade also features several narrow gaps that allow streaks of light to seep out. The shape of the shade hides the lightbulb and prevents glare.
