Description
1950s Carl Thore Perforated Brass Pendant

Executed in perforated brassed metal with an attractive patina, this sculptural pendant lamp is highly characteristic of quintessential Swedish design of the midcentury era. Unmarked. The perforated shade casts geometric light and shadow patterns when illuminated.

Contact us to facilitate.

Sigurd 'Carl Thore' Lindkvist worked for the lighting firm Luko, before joining Granhaga Metallindustri AB as Head of Sales and Lighting Design. He adopted the pseudonym 'Carl Thore' when he was presenting his lights to a client, not wanting to reveal to the customer his identity as a designer. The lights were labeled ‘Carl Thore Design’ from that point forward.
