Lampe Gras 323 XL Pendant Light – a French design icon with an expressive silhouette

The 323 XL pendant light by Lampe Gras embodies the unmistakable combination of functionality, robustness and aesthetics. With its generous design language, it creates a striking focal point whilst blending harmoniously into both modern and classic interior schemes.

The origins of the Lampe Gras collection date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed his first well-thought-out designs. Originally conceived for offices and industrial spaces, the range was far ahead of its time with its simple, robust yet ergonomic design. The basic construction requires no screws or welded joints.

In particular, the design of the individual details – such as the arms, bodies, fittings and joints – demonstrates exceptional originality and ingenuity. This distinctive design language continues to define the unmistakable character of the Lampe Gras lights to this day.

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

Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless. The 323 XL pendant light combines this time-honoured design with a striking presence, making it a stylish lighting solution for a wide variety of living and working spaces.
