Just Andersen/Disco Metal
Disko metal is the distinctive alloy developed by Danish designer Just Andersen, known for its deep matte tone, solid weight and sculptural presence. Created in the early 20th century, this unique material became one of Andersen’s trademarks and is now highly regarded among collectors of Scandinavian design.
Unlike polished bronze or bright pewter, Disko metal has a soft, dark finish that highlights form rather than shine. The alloy allows for smooth curves, sharp edges and rich surface depth, making each object feel both artistic and functional.
Just Andersen used Disko metal for bowls, vases, trays and small sculptures, all designed with the organic shapes and balanced proportions that define his work. These pieces are instantly recognisable and remain some of the most sought-after examples of Nordic metal craftsmanship.
