Pendant light P254 'Tivoli' by Jorn Utzon for Nordisk Solar Compagni. Denmark 1960s

The P254 or Tivoli pendant is designed by Danish architect Jørn Utzon in 1947 and produced by Nordisk Solar Compagni. This is a true timeless design piece, created almost 70 years ago. Inspired by the engineering drawings his father made working as naval architect in Copenhagen, Denmark, Jørn Utzon created fantastic architecture and designs such as the Sydney Opera House and this classic, elegant pendant. Originally this pendant light was introduced as the "Tivoli pendant" and produced by Nordisk Solar Compagni. During the 1960s the pendant was re-introduced as P254 Jørn Utzon pendant as the Tivoli Garden in Copenhagen did not allow for their brand name to be used for this purpose. This particular pendant light is produced in the 1970s and is made from brushed aluminium with a matte golden surface. The center ring had white glossy lacquer. Good vintage condition with some minor scratches seen at close examination. No bends or dents. Standard E27 light bulb.
