Normann Copenhagen – Amp Pendant light

Description

Glass and marble pendant lamp
Series of lamps with hi-fi inspiration: for Normann Copenhagen the Danish designer Simon Legald has created the refined series of lamps Amp created. Glass and marble provide optical lightness and sensual heaviness. A simultaneously nostalgic and modern look.
The idea for the shape of the Amp Pendant lamp came about when designer Simon Legald was restoring an old radio from the 1960s at home. While looking for a spare part for the radio, he noticed the glimmer of the tube amplifier. The simple, oval shape and l amp en screen refer to it – as does the name Amp , the English name for tube amplifier. The proportions of the Amp luminaires from Normann Copenhagen are carefully worked out.
Normann Copenhagen and Legald have emphasized the functional details, such as the way the shade rests on the base of the pendant lamp. Amp pendant lamp rests on the base. The combination of the two natural materials gives an interesting contrast between the transparent, light glass and the solid, heavy marble.
Normann Copenhagen Amp Pendant lamp: noble contrasts
Simon Legald tells: “Sometimes you can’t really put your finger on why an idea for a new object comes about. But in this case, the inspiration came directly from a radio and hi-fi equipment. This is evident in the design of Amp very clearly. There is something very special about the round, transparent shape of a tube. I thought it would go very well with an L amp e would fit. I chose a type of glass that is also used for hourglasses, among other things. The shape should be curvy and waisted. I chose marble to counterbalance the dainty glass. I think the two materials go well together.”
The Amp Lights come with matching textile cable. The shade can be removed without tools to replace the bulb. The Normann Copenhagen Amp is also available as a dimmable Amp table lamp .
Both versions are available with a amp en shade in gold or smoke colors. The Amp pendant lamp is available with a socket in striking black marble or in glamorous jade green, which emphasizes the natural elegance of the material.
