Forestier Grass hanging light M, green

Grass Pendant M Green is a beautiful lighting collection with a consistent and coherent design. The series consists of wall, table, floor and pendant lights in a variety of sizes and colours. What they all have in common is their beautifully woven lampshade in rattan and abacá, a type of banana tree native to the Philippines, which is known for its strong plant fibres used in the production of rope and cordage. The durable material and tight weave give the lampshade a firm, almost curve-like appearance that beautifully combines the potential of the natural material with skilful and well-executed design craftsmanship. The larger versions of the lamp have a wide, flat lampshade and are therefore equipped with a diffuser that shields the light bulb and thus prevents the light source from glare. The light can therefore shine softly and comfortably on all sides. At the same time, the extra wide lampshade ensures a diffused light emission to effectively illuminate the surroundings.

Grass M pendant light with a handcrafted lampshade made from rattan and abacá The Grass M pendant light was designed by product designer Jette Scheib and, through its harmonious overall design, conveys a sense of tranquillity that is reflected in the traditional weaving process. The light’s round lampshade is made from the natural materials rattan and abacá and is divided into strips in a range of warm colours. These are reminiscent of the fields where the material used for basket weaving grows. The light adds an attractive, natural touch to the living area and creates a cosy atmosphere. Grass M is ideal for hanging above the dining or living room table, for example. Production of the Grass series of lights is in the hands of the French lighting manufacturer Forestier. The company was founded in 1992 by Bernard Forestier and is committed to connecting with people and culture on a daily basis.
