ABOUT PRODUCTID 20604
The Scandinavian pendant lamp 'Jaws', designed by Benny Frandsen in the 1980s, exemplifies the era’s distinctive approach to form and illumination. The shade, composed of elongated, curved metal slats arranged vertically around the central light source, creates an open, geometric structure. A cool, metallic silver tone with a high-gloss, mirrored finish accentuates its modernist character, while precise joints and clean lines are characteristic of Scandinavian minimalism. The ceiling rose and cable are finished in the same metallic tone, ensuring visual cohesion. The primary material is polished metal with a smooth, texture-free surface. The lamp is preserved in good vintage condition—free from visible damage, dents, or significant signs of wear, with all elements remaining original to the period.The form of this lamp tells the story of the 1980s—a decade when Scandinavian design sought new expression through light and material. The metal slats evoke a mechanical arrangement, as if the light were to be tamed and directed with calculated rhythm. The high-gloss metal reflects its surroundings, creating a subtle play of reflections, while the light slips through the slats, casting graphic, dynamic shadows—as if the lamp whispered of industrial inspiration and architectural order.The 'Jaws' model could be paired with minimalist sofas or light wood tables to highlight the contrast between the cool metal and the warmth of natural materials. It would perform well suspended above a dining table or as a centerpiece in a living room designed in mid-century modern style, where its geometric form becomes the focal point of the arrangement. It is worth combining with accents in shades of grey, graphite, or black, as well as with simple glass or ceramic accessories to emphasize its sculptural quality and Scandinavian discipline.
