Product description
Iconic Scandinavian modern pendant lamp, model “Kegle”, designed by Bent Karlby for Lyfa, Denmark, circa 1970s.
This elegant conical pendant is executed in black lacquered metal and features a refined band of elongated perforations along the lower edge, creating a subtle and atmospheric light effect when illuminated.
The lamp is finished with its characteristic brass-toned top fitting, a hallmark of Karlby’s timeless design language.
Bent Karlby is regarded as one of Denmark’s most influential lighting designers, known for his ability to combine sculptural form with functional light diffusion.
The Kegle pendant exemplifies his minimalist yet warm modernist approach and remains highly sought after by collectors of Danish mid-century design.
The lamp has been professionally rewired and is fitted with a long cord of approximately 2 meters (≈ 78.7 inches), making it ideal for use above dining tables, kitchen islands, or in rooms with higher ceilings.
Condition:
Good vintage condition, with minor signs of age and use consistent with time. The rewiring has been carried out by a professional, ensuring safe and reliable use while maintaining the lamp’s original character.
