ABOUT PRODUCTID 42670
The Type 240 pendant lamp, designed by Mogens Davidsen for Danish manufacturer Superlight in the 1970s, exemplifies the Scandinavian modernist approach to form and function. The shade is composed of several concentric, horizontally arranged metal discs of varying diameters, crafted from cool, brushed aluminum with a satin finish. The construction reveals carefully considered geometry and harmonious proportions—the wide, flat shade (50 cm in diameter) accentuates the lamp’s architectural character. Suspended from a white cord, the lamp features a discreet brass accent at the top, lending a touch of warmth to the otherwise metallic palette. All joints are concealed, the surface is smooth and continuous, and the overall build quality reflects the precision typical of Danish craft in the 1970s. Condition is very good: only minimal signs of use are present, with no dents or significant damage. The wiring has been newly replaced, ensuring the lamp is fully functional and ready for immediate use.The minimalist form of the Type 240 lamp reflects the spirit of the 1970s, when Danish designers strove for a balance between cool modernity and domestic comfort. The multi-layered shade “tells” of an era when light was meant to be soft and diffused, and fixtures were to be unobtrusive yet distinctive. The smooth aluminum surfaces subtly disperse light, while the brass detail at the top seems to whisper a memory of home’s warmth
