Hot Pamono AJ Royal SAS Floor Lamp by Arne Jacobsen for Louis Poulsen, 1958

The AJ Royal Floor Lamp, designed by the renowned Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen in 1958, is an exceptional piece of Scandinavian modern design. Created for Louis Poulsen, Denmark, this lamp was part of Jacobsen’s comprehensive design project for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, a landmark of mid-century modernism. The lamp’s brown-grey finished metal base features an oval cast iron foot, offering stability with a substantial weight. A unique aspect of its design, the base mirrors the size and shape of the cylindrical shade above it, creating a harmonious symmetry and adding a refined detail to the lamp’s minimalist aesthetic. This early edition of the SAS floor lamp is a collector’s gem, in very good original condition with minor, age-appropriate wear that enhances its character and authenticity. Inside, it houses two light sockets and retains its original pull cord, showcasing the functional elegance characteristic of Jacobsen’s work. Designed as a total work of art for the SAS Royal Hotel, every detail of the hotel’s interior, including these elegant floor lamps, was conceived by Jacobsen to create a cohesive environment of style and function. Originally intended to illuminate the hotel’s lobby, lounges, and guest rooms, the AJ Royal Floor Lamp effortlessly embodies Scandinavian design principles: understated elegance, functionality, and timeless appeal. with its elliptical cast base and sleek steel shaft, it stands as both a beautiful artifact of design history and a functional lighting piece that brings warmth and sophistication to any interior.
