Doo-Wop Pendant

Step into a slice of mid-century charm with the Doo-Wop Pendant from Louis Poulsen. Originally designed in the 1950s in collaboration with the Navy Buildings Department, this pendant light was a staple in Navy buildings, gracing everything from canteens to offices with its distinctive style and exceptional utility. Named the Navy Pendant back in its heyday, this classic fixture was celebrated for its unique lighting properties and practical design. After being retired from Louis Poulsen’s catalog in the early 1980s, this design became a sought-after gem in antique stores and auctions. Its resurgence in popularity led to a much-anticipated re-launch by Louis Poulsen, bringing back the charm of this iconic design with a modern twist. The reimagined Doo-Wop Pendant stays true to its original design with hand-spun shades and a meticulously rolled edge that adds a special optical volume. Updated colors reflect the timeless elegance of the era while the production methods remain faithful to the craftsmanship of the past. The brass variant, spun from a solid brass plate, showcases a polished finish that challenges the craftsman’s skills and adds a touch of luxury.
