Kongelys Table Lamp (T3) By Niels Rasmussen Thykie SOLD SOLD SOLD

1960's Brass base with acrylic shade. Very good vintage condition with original patina. Niels Rasmussen Thykier (1883-1978), a Danish sculptor and painter, created the famous T3 of his Kongelys table lamp series in 1929. Thyker made his first lamp in 1928 as a gift for his father in law. Encouraged to make more lamps, he started his own small company. Due to a number of setbacks caused by the war, his company eventually teamed up with Fog & Mørup that started producing the Kongelys lights in 1938. Their very first copy of the T3 was donated to King Christian X of Denmark, in honor of his governmental jubilee. The iconic shade underwent a transformation from oil-impregnated paper to transparent acrylic, but never lost its stunning appearance or candle light glow. The Kongelys T3 is a timeless design that has pleased for decades and still does. Designer: Niels Rasmussen Thykier Brand/Manufacturer: Fog & Morup Date of Manufacture:circa 1960 Place of Origin: Denmark Dimensions: Height 55 cm Width 45 cm Depth 45 cm
