Jo Hammerborg for Fog & Mørup Brass Pendant Light

Bring a hit of Danish Modern mastery to your next project with this rare, conical pendant by Jo Hammerborg, the visionary who steered Fog & Mørup’s lighting program through its golden era. Trained as a silversmith and named head of design in 1957, Hammerborg applied jewelry-grade precision to more than sixty lighting models, all celebrated for their disciplined geometry and quietly luxurious finishes.

Graphic silhouette, soft glow – The spun-brass shade flares from a narrow collar to a broad 14 in. rim, washing walls and work-surfaces in a warm, even pool of light.

Architectural detailing – Signature loop handles top and bottom read like Bauhaus grab rails, adding an industrial note while doubling as easy installation points.

Original counter-weighted coil cord – The black helical suspension keeps the look crisp and lets you fine-tune hang height over dining tables, kitchen islands, or a statement desk.

Patina with pedigree – Decades of gentle use have mellowed the lacquered brass to a rich honey tone that pairs effortlessly with walnut millwork, Calacatta marble, or poured concrete.

Placement ideas

Float a trio down a galley kitchen for a unified, sculptural rhythm.

Use a single piece as a visual anchor above a Saarinen tulip table or in a moody library corner.

Layer it into a high-ceiling loft; the bold funnel form holds its own against large-scale art and exposed beams.
