Description from the seller
Vintage Danish Lysgards Design chain with brutalist pendant – tin & ceramic – approx. 1960–1970
Special vintage Danish chain with a large sculptural pendant from Lysgards Design, executed in the characteristic brutalist-modernist idiom of the 1960s–1970s.
The pendant is made of tin and has a pronounced architectural construction. The upper part consists of a rectangular form with a central square ceramic element, rendered in beautiful green-blue tones with a softly iridescent appearance.
Below the ceramic centerpiece is a geometric lattice of open cylindrical elements. From this hang several large movable rings that together form a striking, almost kinetic fringe. When the chain moves, these individual links move along, so the piece constantly changes its appearance.
Lysgards Design – Denmark
The back is equipped with the original round Lysgards Design maker’s mark and the inscription “Tin 80”. This makes the piece identifiable as a Lysgards Design creation.
The combination of heavy-fired tin, geometric shapes, a ceramic accent and movable metal elements is characteristic of the experimental Danish brutalist and modernist jewelry from the 1960s and 1970s.
The substantial chain complements the pendant in material and form, making the whole a powerful Scandinavian statement piece.
