Fog & Mörup was a legendary Danish lighting manufacturer best known to collectors for their sleek and sculptural lamps. Its vintage fixtures are ideal for design enthusiasts looking to introduce a splash of Scandinavian Modernist ingenuity into a space.
This stylish table lamp is a delightfully distinctive model, with unique details and material choices. Designed by Niels Rasmussen Thykier for Fog & Mörup in Denmark during the heyday of the mid-century modern movement, this model is just as stylish as it is elegant. The structure is made of the ultimate material of the era’s lighting design: brass. Danish lighting manufacturers were masters of creating designs with great textural variety as this table lamp shows; the pairing of the patinated brass body and fabric shade creates an interesting visual effect.
Thanks to the great sense of proportions and decorative elements, this model is perfectly balanced visually. Apart from the aesthetics, the quality of this table lamp is also true to its mid-century heritage. This style’s recent popularity has much to do with the heart-warming light emitted from under the lampshade that makes cramped spaces feel cosy.
