Louis Poulsen AJ - designer table lamp, rusty red

AJ designer table lamp with a pivotable head

The AJ table lamp delights people with its clear, completely timeless design that blends into a number of living styles. The lampshade is a symbiosis of a cylindrical shape at the top and a conical shape at the bottom. It emits the light directly. The head can be pivoted, allowing you to align the light as required. The inside surface of the lampshade is painted white for an optimal reflection. This results in an efficient light control as well as a soft lighting mood with a pleasant character. The switch has been integrated into the base of the lamp.

The AJ table lamp was originally designed for the SAS Royal (Radisson) Hotel in Copenhagen in 1957. The designer, journalist, architect, author and critic Arne Jacobsen was commissioned with the overall design of the hotel and also designed some of the elements of the interior. Some of the furniture and lighting series have become classics of interior design.

With its combination of purism and functionalism, AJ is a prime example of the concept of the Danish manufacturer Louis Poulsen, a lighting company that was founded in 1874 and is known for the simple and attractive design of its products.
