The elegant A110 pendant light is nicknamed "Hand Grenade" for its distinctive shape (reminiscent of a German 'stick' grenade from the early 20th century). Originally produced for the building Alvar Aalto designed for the Finnish Engineers Association in 1952, the A110 Light features Alvar Aalto's signature streamlined aesthetic. Composed of a lacquered steel shade and a brass inner ring, the A110 Hand Grenade Pendant Light provides warm reflected light both upwards and downwards.
The A110 projects both direct and indirect light onto ceilings, and its perforated inner ring at the bottom of the shade creates a halo effect around the pendant, which also reduces glare. Place the pendant alone over a table, or arrange it in rows or clusters to create a cosy atmosphere and iconic aesthetic.

Alvar Aalto
Alvar Aalto (1898-1976), born in Kuortane, Finland, is now recognised as one of the great masters of modern architecture.
