ARNE JACOBSEN (Denmark, 1902 - 1971) for Louis Poulsen. Floor lamp "AJ". Black metal. Unused. In original packaging. Measurements: 130 cm. height). Designed in 1957 by Jacobsen for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, the table lamp "AJ" a design considered today a classic masterpiece, icon of the Scandinavian modern style of the mid-twentieth century. Few desk lamps have its appeal, based on its characteristic asymmetrical shape and swiveling diffuser, which makes it a perfect reading lamp. An architect and designer, Arne Jacobsen studied for four years at the Copenhagen School of Construction, then entered the Faculty of Architecture at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. As a designer, he created furniture that has become classics, including the "Ant" chair (1951) and the "Swan" and "Egg" chairs designed for the SAS hotel. The key to the success of Jacobsen's work lies in its elegant and essential design, and today we can find them in collections such as those of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London or the MoMA in New York, among many others.
