For Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jørn Utzon, his father’s naval engineering drawings prompted a lifelong fascination with ships. Such interest is illustrated in Utzon JU1, a pendant with a distinctive collared shape and sharp lines that echo the industrial silhouette of a ship. First released in 1947, the Utzon pendant is available in two variants - Brass and White - and are crafted from lacquered brass and steel.

Jørn Utzon was a Danish architect who is best known for designing the iconic Sydney Opera House in Australia. Born in 1918, he studied architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen before setting up his own architectural practice. His design for the Sydney Opera House won an international competition in 1957, and he spent the next 15 years overseeing the construction of the building.
