The Artek A201 Pendant Light was originally designed by Alvar Aalto in 1952 for the library of Säynätsalo Town Hall in central Finland. Composed of formed sheet steel, Pendant Light A201 has a sculptural presence; its beauty can be appreciated whether switched on or off.
The light exiting the lower and upper part of the shade creates a beautiful halo of light for the room, characteristic of Aalto who sought to make artificial light as indirect and soft as possible. Use the A201 Pendant Light in the living room, bedroom, hallway or above a dining table. It is available in standard white with brass details.
