About the Item
This rare Art Deco bronze ceiling lamp was designed by prominent Danish architect Aage Rafn in the 1920s. Originally crafted for the main Danish police station, a building co-designed by Rafn and the esteemed Hack Kampmann, this piece embodies the streamlined elegance of early 20th-century design.
The lamp, cast by the renowned Danish foundry L. Rasmussen, showcases exceptional craftsmanship and a striking Art Deco aesthetic, with clean geometric lines and bold details that reflect the architectural trends of the era. Its solid bronze construction boasts a beautifully aged patina, a testament to both its quality and history.
Designed in conjunction with the Greek-inspired architecture of the police station, this lamp merges classical influences with the emerging modernist style, resulting in a truly unique piece.
A rare and significant find, this ceiling lamp not only serves as a functional lighting element but also stands as a piece of Danish design heritage, ideal for collectors or enthusiasts of Art Deco lighting.
