Copenhagen-based design company FRIPON is relaunching the classic Philosopher Lamp, designed by the Danish architect Lars-Erik Ejlers in the early 1990s. The lamp was originally made for Restaurant Cap Horn in Nyhavn. In the following years, the lamp, designed with a notable brass shade, became a rarity due to very limited distribution but still found its way and is gracing iconic bars and restaurants throughout Copenhagen. FRIPON’s first endeavour is to breathe new life into the classic Philosopher Lamp, once again. The Philospher Lamp is produced locally in workshops located in the metropolitan area of Copenhagen.

During 3daysofdesign the Copenhagen-based design company FRIPON will showcase the relaunched model of the iconic Philosopher Lamp in Frame Studio’s showroom.
