LE KLINT Donut – designer pendant light, 53 cm

Pleated lampshade: Donut designer pendant light The Donut pendant light is what the name suggests. The light’s handmade lampshade, made of plastic, is reminiscent of the round shape of a doughnut. The fact that only LEDs or compact fluorescent lamps can be used with this pendant light suggests that its lampshade is particularly sensitive and should be treated with care. This is the only way to preserve the quality and the delicate pleating technique so that they can be enjoyed for years to come. Lise Navne has developed this model for the traditional Danish designer lighting manufacturer, and has used one of the manufacturer’s classics, the so-called “fruit lamp” by Kaare Klint, as a model. In the process, she developed the so-called cross-pleats, and pushed them to the limit so that a round and well-shaped light could be formed from pleats. Le Klint is a Danish light manufacturer, which is not only the court supplier to the Queen of Denmark, but also has a remarkable history that is full of tradition. Le Klint’s pleated lampshades are now known all over the world. It all began at the beginning of the 20th century, when the architect P. V. Jensen-Klint built a lampshade for a paraffin lamp. This lampshade was the beginning of the family business, which was founded in 1943 by his son Tage Klint. Energy efficiency class:A++
