Niels Bohr Mobile

Dimensions :
Materials : wood, stainless steel

Design: Mette Høst, Clive Ellegaard, Ole Flensted

To celebrate the 100 years of the revolutionary Niels Bohr Atom Model, we have, in cooperation with the Niels Bohr Institute of Copenhagen, created this beautiful mobile, which will surely decorate any home.

In 1913 Niels Bohr developed his revolutionary model of the atom, from which new information technologies continue to arise - from the transistor radio to quantum computers.

Once upon a time...
Mobiles are a traditional craft in Denmark, but the modern mobile was created in 1954 by Christian Flensted and his wife Grethe. Their first design, the stork mobile, was a great success, and now flies all over the world. Christian became known as the "Uromager", a name impossible to translate in English which means a maker of things mischievous and always on the move. Today, their son Ole and his wife Aase continue the tradition, with ideas for new and original mobiles issuing regularly from their "Department of Space Research".

Made in Denmark.
