A true icon of Scandinavian design, it is one of the best-selling pendant lamps in Denmark.

These lamps are encircled by metal Lampshades that act as reflectors, guaranteeing soft, glare-free, diffused light.

This Pendant features three spherical Lampshades mounted on a cone. This vintage-style Pendant continues to seduce design enthusiasts the world over.
