Lampe Gras 322 L pendant light, round, raw copper/white – DCW

Lampe Gras 322 L pendant light – round in raw copper and white

The Lampe Gras 322 L pendant light combines the collection’s iconic design language with a round lampshade in raw copper and white. The interplay of materials gives the light a distinctive, characterful appeal.

The origins of the Lampe Gras date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed his first well-thought-out designs. Originally conceived for offices and industrial spaces, the range is characterised by simple, robust and ergonomic design. The basic construction requires no screws or welded joints.

Le Corbusier was an early admirer of the Lampe Gras’s modern design and used the lights in his projects. The visionary design has since established itself as a timeless classic.

Raw copper – every light is unique

The raw copper lampshade is supplied new and untreated and does not yet have a patina. It is only after unpacking that the natural oxidation process begins, triggered by contact with air and environmental factors. As a result, the surface changes over time and develops its characteristic raw copper look.

The copper may visibly darken after as little as 14 days. How quickly the patina develops depends, amongst other things, on humidity, temperature and the specific environmental conditions.
