Original Danish Orient pendant lamp, designed by Jo Hammerborg for Fog & Mørup – one of the most recognisable Scandinavian lighting designs of the 1960s.
The lamp features its distinctive organic silhouette crafted from copper, complemented by a slender wooden top detail. The subtle vertical slots around the upper part of the shade are both decorative and functional, adding another layer of light to the design.
Its beautifully balanced proportions and combination of warm copper and wood make the Orient a timeless example of Danish Modern lighting. When illuminated, the lamp provides a warm, atmospheric downward light, making it particularly suitable above a dining table, kitchen island or as a statement piece in a living room.
A particularly attractive feature of this example is the naturally developed patina of the copper, which gives the surface depth and emphasises the authentic vintage character of the lamp.

Model: Orient
Country: Denmark
Period: 1960s

Condition: Good vintage condition, with natural signs of age and use consistent with an original lamp from this period. There is one localised dent, clearly visible in the photographs. It is relatively discreet when viewed from the outside and does not significantly disturb the overall sculptural form of the lamp, but it has naturally been taken into account in the condition and price.
The copper also shows its original age-related patina and minor surface wear, adding to the authentic vintage appearance of the piece. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
