Surprisingly contemporary in its design, this pendant has recently been reissued by the original creator. Uniquely designed, its white-lacquered inner conical reflector provides soft downward light, while its outer reflector, the main shade, spreads the diffuse light all around. Available in five stunning finishes, the Doo-Wop pendant looks particularly striking when hung as a standalone pendant or in a cluster over a dining table or countertop. The Louis Poulsen Doo-Wop hanging lamp is a design in close collaboration with the Danish Navy. The hanging lamp has been used for years in buildings of the navy. The lamp was reintroduced in 2012. Available in different colours. 28.3x24.5x28.3cm.
