Few Danish lamps carry a story quite like this one. The Doo-Wop — also known as the Søværnspendel, or "Navy pendant" — was designed by architect Jørn Utzon in close collaboration with the Royal Danish Navy Building Service, years before he would go on to design the Sydney Opera House. Its tiered, stacked silhouette is instantly recognizable and remains one of the most iconic pieces of Danish lighting design.
This vintage example was produced by Louis Poulsen in a striking black and white finish — the layered rings play the two tones off each other as they wrap around the fixture, giving the piece a graphic, almost nautical crispness that softer single-tone versions don't have. 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
from
misattribution,
Up to 250V (Europe/UK Standard).The wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
