Sax Lamps

The Sax lamp is more popular than ever. Like an accordion, the adjustable arm can be pulled away from and pushed towards the wall, depending on where you need the light. The lamp is even available in versions where the lamp faces upwards or downwards—a practical downlight for reading or working, or an atmospheric uplight to give your home a comfortable glow. The designer Erik Hansen’s journey with LE KLINT began when he needed a lampshade for a lamp he had designed himself. His flexible Sax lamp immediately grabbed LE KLINT’s attention, and so Erik Hansen got to work refining the lamp that has since become a modern classic.

Le Klint sax lamp - Unique icon of Danish design


Le Klint sax lamps are an iconic part of Danish design history, known for their unique combination of functionality and aesthetics. These lamps are designed with a distinctive scissor arm that makes it possible to adjust both height and reach, providing a flexible lighting solution that is ideal for different spaces and needs. Designed by Erik Hansen, the unique, classic sax lamps were first launched in 1952. They have since retained their popularity due to their timeless design and versatility.

One of the biggest advantages of Le Klint sax lamps is their adjustability. The built-in scissor arm makes it possible to lengthen or shorten the lamp to suit different lighting needs and room sizes. This is especially useful in workspaces such as kitchens and offices where precision lighting is important. In addition, the lamp can be rotated and angled, providing additional flexibility to direct light exactly where it is needed. This functionality makes the sax lamps ideal for reading corners, by beds or as task lighting above a desk.

Design-wise, a Le Klint sax lamp is known for its timeless elegance. The lamps are made from quality wood combined with Le Klint's characteristic hand-folded pleated lampshades that add a soft and diffused light emission. This not only creates comfortable lighting but also adds an aesthetic dimension to the room. The classic and simple design of the sax lamps makes them easy to integrate into different interior styles, from the modern and minimalist to the more traditional and retro-inspired.

Another advantage of Le Klint sax lamps is their durability and quality. They are designed to last for many years, both in terms of functionality and style. This makes them a sustainable lighting solution that can withstand the test of time and trends. Overall, Le Klint shaft lights combine form and function in a way that makes them a popular choice among design enthusiasts worldwide.
