About the Item

TYPE 6395 - large leaf-shaped brass pendant from the 1960s by Svend Aage Holm Sorensen. Collectors item - internationally sought after piece! A large pendant with a width of 16.5" (42 cm) and a height of 11.2" (28,5 cm), made up twelve leaf shaped serrated brass plates - acid treated in Holm Sorensen's special process (this is his signature), bringing out a wondrous spectre of colors. Shapes and acid-treatment come together to create the illusion of a suspended lighting flower, and as the bulb mount is placed in the centre of the lamp, the lights emits through the leafs, creating a softly diffused illumination. As the warm ambient luminance is projected onto the surroundings, it is ever so gently interrupted by a pattern of lighter spots, escaping between the leafs. The bottom is open to allow direct light to flow downward. The pendant comes with the original brass chain to support the weight of the light and the original brass canopy. This gorgeous sculptural 1960s pendant would be perfect over a dining table providing an authentic mid-century feel in the room or over a siting area - no matter where you place it - it is sure to attract positive attention and start conversations! Condition: All original including the original brass chain, measuring 110 cm (3' 7.3"), to support the weight of the light, as well as the original brass canopy, complete with label sticker, but rewired with 2 m (6' 6.7") high end black fabric cord - for safety and beauty - tested and fully functional and fitted with safety clamps for easy connection to existing wiring. Cleaned, labelled and packed in protective bag. Light source: One bulb, Edison screw-fitting (E27/E26) Max 75 Watt.
