Lampe Gras 323 L Pendant Light – a design full of character with a rich history

The 323 L pendant light embodies the unmistakable blend of functionality and aesthetics for which Lampe Gras is renowned worldwide. Its clean lines make it a stylish eye-catcher and a versatile light source for modern living and working spaces.

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

The individual details in particular – such as the bodies, fittings and joints – bear witness to an extraordinary level of design sophistication. The clean lines were far ahead of their time and continue to give the lights their unmistakable character to this day.

Le Corbusier was an early admirer of the modern design of the Lampe Gras and used the lights in his projects. Today, the models are highly sought-after collector’s items worldwide, particularly in France, the USA and Japan.

Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless. The 323 L pendant light combines this time-honoured design language with a modern appeal and adds a striking accent to a wide variety of interiors.
