Lampe Gras 322 XL pendant light, round, blue – DCW

Iconic Lampe Gras 322 XL pendant light with a timeless design

The Lampe Gras 322 XL pendant light embodies the unmistakable blend of functionality and aesthetics for which the French design brand is renowned. With its generous proportions, it makes a striking statement and impressively showcases the series’ characteristic design language.

The origins of the series of lights date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed the first designs for his functional lights. Originally conceived for offices and industrial applications, the series impressed with its simple, robust and, at the same time, ergonomic construction. The basic form was realised without screws or welded joints.

The design of the individual components in particular demonstrates the exceptional thoughtfulness of the concept. Arms, bodies, fittings and joints form a harmonious whole and give the lights their characteristic appearance, which remains modern to this day.

Le Corbusier was fascinated by the visionary design of the Lamp Gras luminaires from an early stage and incorporated them into his projects. Today, these models are regarded worldwide as sought-after design classics and collectors’ items, particularly in France, the USA and Japan.

Bernard-Albin Gras’s timeless design makes the 322 XL pendant light an expressive light that adds stylish accents to both private living spaces and prestigious work and commercial environments.
