Without question, the George Nelson Bubble Lamp® Pear Pendant is a tried-and-true standard of the modern vocabulary. George Nelson designed the first lamps in 1947.
These lamps with their simple sculptural shapes are constructed of an innovative taut plastic that coats a steel wire-frame. Nelson's unique design and ingenious use of materials prove to eliminate glare and provide an abundant, yet diffused light. A quality which alone is unique to this material.
From the forming of the wire-frame, to the spraying of the vinyl form, one-by-one, each Bubble Lamp is constructed to last decades and each
Bubble Lamp is built to George Nelson’s original specifications.
The Pear Pendant is available in two sizes. Each lamp comes with a 135mm brushed, nickel-plated steel ceiling plate and 1830mm of cord.
The George Nelson Bubble Lamp® collection is featured in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Herman Miller is the official site for the George Nelson Bubble Lamp® Collection.
