Story
An early LK light
LK (Lauritz Knudsen) developed the Skot light early in the 1900s, first for ships and maritime areas. Its compact, sturdy design has made it popular in other environments too, and an LED version arrived in 2012.
Symmetric or half shaded
The lamp comes with two kinds of light distribution: symmetric, or half shaded, and the half shaded one is recommended for wall mounting only. An opal diffuser creates a soft light distribution; the clear version gives higher efficiency.
