Specifically designed by Arne Jacobsen for St Catherine’s College in Oxford, inaugurated in 1963, the AJ Oxford Table Lamp reflects the modernist style of the building.
Arne Jacobsen designed the AJ Oxford fixture as a table pin lamp for the long rows of oak tables in the dining hall. The clerestory windows, which let in natural daylight, are complemented by lighting from the AJ Eklipta Wall Lamps, as well as rows of AJ Oxford Table pin lamps with their original brown painted metal shade and frame, which are all there to this day.
The AJ Oxford Table Lamp is reintroduced in two sizes and a monochrome colour palette in the Spring of 2023.
It stays true to Jacobsen’s original design with its sleek, graphic expression, emphasising the balance between the elegant stem and the sculptural shade. With this fixture, form follows function in a playful manner, where the stem seamlessly blends into the base, with the cord continuing the visual line.
The two sizes of the AJ Oxford Table Lamp make the fixture fit perfectly almost anywhere at home, whether placed in the windowsill, on a bookshelf, on the desk in the home office or even on the bedside table.
