Product description
Spaceage orange butterfly XL-size pendant lamp by Lars Schiøler for Hoyrup, 1960s, Denmark
The Butterfly pendant lamp was designed by Lars Schiøler for Hoyrup Light in 1968. This is the 55cm diameter version.
This pendant lamp consists of orange plastic plates, folded and attached to each other. All plates are attached to a round metal ring, which also holds the lamp socket.
The thin plastic plates create a soft, diffused light when switched on, and the color darkens, creating the illusion of a band around the center where the folded plastic plates overlap. Lars Schiøler designed a number of these folded plastic lamps for Hoyrup Lighting in the late 1960s.
It is very rare to find these pendant lamps in very good condition, because the light bulbs got so hot in the 1960s and 70s. This one is in great condition. Dimensions
