Height: 20 centimeters Width: 30 centimeters Depth: 30 centimeters Description Pendant light Hydra II from the White Line series, designed in 1969 by Jo Hammerborg, manufactured by Fog & Mørup. The Hydra 2 is characterized by a cylindrical shape, with three top rings surrounding the chrome bulb housing. Design in the style of space-age. Some minor scratches to the white lacquer as seen in the last image. No bends or dents. Standard E27 lightbulb. Johannes (Jo) Hammerborg grew up right outside of Randers, in a regular middle-class family. He trained as a silversmith, participated in Denmark’s resistance and struggle for freedom in 1940-45 as a saboteur, studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and worked as a silversmith at Georg Jensen. In 1957, he was hired as a chief designer at the lamp manufacturer Fog & Mørup, where he worked until 1980. And now, decades later, his coveted lamps are in high demand, and they are being sold in antique shops. I try to make the pictures reflect the true look, color and condition of the piece.
