ERCO 2107 Pendant Lamp by Aloys F. Gangkofner – Germany, c. 1960s–1970s

Designed by Aloys F. Gangkofner for ERCO, the 2107 pendant lamp is a distinctive example of German lighting design from the 1960s–1970s, positioned at the intersection of post-war modernism and Space Age aesthetics.

Its slightly flattened spherical shade is made from moulded opaline plastic and features a repeating geometric relief that adds depth to the surface and transforms the light into a warm, diffused glow. The combination of a simple silhouette and pronounced texture gives the lamp a strong presence both switched on and off. The piece retains its original suspension system and ERCO label, marked with the model number 2107 and a maximum wattage of 100 W.
