Dokka is a small light with a big history. Designed in 1954, it 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. It became one of the best-selling pendant lamps ever produced in Norway, then disappeared when the previous manufacturer discontinued their lighting range.

The light is available in a range of colours: black, dark grey, white, light yellow, rust red, dark green, warm beige, brushed steel and brushed brass. An icon of its time, Dokka is uniquely contemporary, and is destined to become a future antique.
