Suspension lamp Grass XS made of rattan and abacá with handmade shade The hanging lamp Grass XS catches the eye with its handmade lampshade, which is made of rattan and abacá. Abacá is a plant species from East Asia from the genus of banana plants and is used as a fiber plant, for example, for the production of ship ropes. The rounded shade is composed of several strips designed in different warm colors, creating a harmonious overall look. The canopy is made of metal and the cable is made of textile, both elements are in black. The pendant lamp emits light downwards and is ideal, for example, to illuminate the living room or dining room table. It also provides a natural touch to the living environment. Grass XS was conceived by product designer Jette Scheib. Her goal with Grass was to express the tranquility that lies in the traditional weaving process, as well as the connection between basket makers and nature. The stripes in warm colors are meant to evoke the fields where the material for basketry grows. The pendant lamp was produced by the renowned lighting manufacturer Forestier.

Grass Pendant XS Blue 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.
