Classic danish midcentury pendant.

The lamp is probably designed by the danish lightning company Vitrika or similair in the 1960s.

Signs of use.

It is ready for use.

Vitrika is a part of the Danish midcentury design tradition which includes name like Jo Hammerborg (Fog og Mørup), Bent Karlby (Lyfa), Svend Middelboe (Nordisk Solar) and many more who all work with the multi shade system. A system first developed by the famous architect Poul Henningsen (Louis Poulsen) in the beginning of the 20th century.
