Inspired by the earlier lamp thread, I photographed these two hanging lamps my folks purchased somewhere in the early seventies. They were bought in a nice shop selling design lamps in Brussels, together with a Panthella table lamp. However, the original receipt has gone missing, and I can find no indications, stickers or markings on the lamps. Does anyone recognize them ? Or has any information on them ? It may be a long shot, but any tips would be greatly appreciated !

(PS: sorry for the crappy pictures, the winter lighting makes it a bit tricky to get nice pics.)

PS: Sorry, some trouble with flickr urls

Sorry, no.
But I like them. They look Danish or Swedish. Fog & Morup is a good guess, or perhaps Lyfa?

Thank you for the comments...
Thank you for the comments guys, I am thinking something in the same direction. There is some scandinavian feel to them, and bc they were purchased with a panthella lamp I think these labels are (might be) a good guess.
I love most of the Fog & Morup lamps (semi, saturn, orient, etc), but I have not seen these pendant lights attributed yet. However, that may very well mean nothing, bc I really am not familiar with all of the models. There is some info out on the internet (such as below), but if anyone would know of a resource of old catalogues to browse online, or for purchasing that would be great !
Hell, I knew it would be long shot..
