This elegant pendant lamp is a design by Carl Fagerlund for the renowned Swedish manufacturer Orrefors, in collaboration with Vitrika. The fixture, often referred to as the 'UFO' model, is a characteristic example of Scandinavian design from the 1960s, where functionality and refined aesthetics come together seamlessly.
The lamp is crafted from a combination of metal and high-quality glass. The outer ring of brushed metal is decorated with diamond-shaped glass inserts that refract the light in a subtle way. The underside features a textured glass shade that ensures soft, diffuse light distribution. The fixture accommodates multiple light sources, resulting in even and atmospheric lighting.
The object is in good condition commensurate with its age and use. The original wiring is still present and the construction is fully intact, retaining its authentic character and original finish.
This refined lighting object comes into its own perfectly above a dining table or in a living space. The design fits seamlessly with both Mid-Century Modern and contemporary interiors, where it serves as a subtle yet striking centerpiece.
This is a luxurious Mid-Century Modern Scandinavian design pendant lamp, produced in the 1960s or 70s. The lamp is the result of a well-known collaboration between the Danish lighting manufacturer Vitrika and the Swedish glass producer Orrefors.
The design is often attributed to or inspired by the famous designer Carl Fagerlund.
The lamp features a wide, round metal ring of brushed aluminum (brass variants also exist). Diamond-shaped, thick crystal glass elements are placed around the ring.
At the bottom is a bowl made of thick pressed crystal glass. This ensures a unique refraction and an atmospheric, sparkling light diffusion in the room.
