Gold and Orange Facet Pendant by Louis Weisdorf for Lyfa, 1960s

About the Item

Louis Weisdorf, the distinguished Danish architect and designer, created this gold facet pendant light in 1963.  The facet consists of 18 identically shaped shades. The construction of the lamp is a 3-D puzzle, as each piece fits into the neighboring pieces and the lamp gets its original shape when all pieces are put together and a cylinder is formed. Weisdorf designed two versions, a silver facet (silver on the outside and had two shades of blue inside) and a gold facet (golden on the outside with two shades of orange on the inside). In 1970, Lyfa started production of the facet-pop. The elements-or facets-in this lamp had the same color on both sides. Lyfa produced four different versions of the facet-pop: tangerine, crimson, goldenrod and blue; each with three different shades of the same color.
