The Nova pendant lamp, designed by Jo Hammerborg for the Danish manufacturer Fog & Mørup in the 1960s, embodies the mature phase of Scandinavian modernism. Its construction is defined by a series of concentric, horizontally arranged aluminum shades with a satin, cool silver finish.

The proportions of the shades are carefully considered to evenly direct light downward and minimize glare, reflecting the era’s functionalist ideals.

It may be paired with textiles in muted tones and opaline glass to bring out the lamp’s subtle, collectible character and emphasize its
