Louis Poulsen Loft Lamp Albertslund / Saturn, designed by Jens Møller-Jensen and made in Denmark, with a frosted glass shade and Saturn ring, metal and glass construction, 27 cm width and depth, 22 cm height, about 1 kg, dating to 1980–1990, in good used condition with minor wear.
Description from the seller
The Loft Lamp from Louis Poulsen creates a characteristic, symmetrical and functional light. The Saturn ring reflects the light downwards, while its placement allows the light to penetrate and creates a soft upward light. The glare protection ring prevents horizontal glare, and the glass shade is frosted glass, so it matches the choice of bulb.
Albertslund was designed in 1963 by Jens Møller-Jensen for a residential area in Albertslund.
Albertslund has a simple lighting technique, but with great effect.
Jens Møller-Jensen was born and raised in Copenhagen. In 1964 he graduated as an architect from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Architecture in Copenhagen. After his studies, Jensen became the head of the workshop at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Architecture, and in 1967 he started his own design company.
Over the years he has created a number of industrial designs, including televisions for Bang & Olufsen.
His most famous work for Louis Poulsen is the Albertslund lamp, which has been used for four decades all over the world. The design also earned Jensen the Danish Design Classic Award in 2000.
Since 1995, Jensen's designs have been part of the exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His work is characterized by his craftsmanship.
Description:

Sent without bulb.
