Mid-Century modern pendant lamp Dokka by Birger Dahl. New release.
Dokka is a small light with a big history. Designed in 1954, Dokka was the first lamp from Norway to receive a Golden Medal award at the prestigious Triennale di Milano. Acclaimed for its smooth contours, precise proportions and sleek handling of materials, Dokka had the potential to become a design classic from day one. Dokka became one of the best-selling pendant lamps ever produced in Norway, then abruptly disappeared when the previous manufacturer discontinued their lighting range.
In 2007, Northern Lighting re-launched Dokka, taking care to preserve the features that made it a design classic. Northern Lighting recently added four new matt colours to the Dokka series – aqua green, petrol blue, light grey and dark grey – and developed new finishes for the existing black and white versions. Today, Dokka is expertly crafted in durable painted steel and made to last. An icon of its time, Dokka remains popular today, and is destined to become an antique in the future.

Dahl Birger
Norway (1916–1998)
Birger Dahl was born in the city of Moss, Norway and is considered one of Scandinavia’s leading post–war interior architects. He was educated at the Norwegian National School of Arts and Crafts (SHKS) in Oslo and was one of the first students to be supervised and guided by Arne Korsmo.
In 1947 Dahl became teacher at SHKS and in the period from 1945 to 1957 he also worked as chief designer for Sønnico (Oslo). The key aspects of his work and design philosophy is the promotion of lighting as honest, logical and functional. The light object must always reach complete harmony with its surrounding humans and architecture.
