Lampe Gras 304 wall light, black/raw copper/white – DCW

Lampe Gras 304 Wall Light – lighting full of character in black, raw copper and white

The Lampe Gras 304 wall light combines the iconic design language of the Lampe Gras collection with a striking combination of black, raw copper and white. Its clean, functional design makes it a versatile wall light for modern living and working spaces.

The 304 embodies the characteristic blend of functionality and aesthetics that has defined Lampe Gras since its inception. The simple, robust yet ergonomic design was originally developed for offices and industrial spaces. Well-thought-out details and the clean construction give the light its unmistakable character.

The raw copper lampshade is particularly striking. It is initially supplied bare and without a patina. The natural change in the surface begins only after unpacking. Through contact with air, moisture and other environmental factors, the copper oxidises and, over time, develops its characteristic raw copper look. The surface may begin to darken visibly after as little as 14 days. The speed and extent of the patina depend on the specific environmental conditions.

The origins of Lampe Gras date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed his first well-conceived designs. The fundamental design language was far ahead of its time and emphasised a clean construction without unnecessary elements. Le Corbusier was an early admirer of the modern design and incorporated Lampe Gras into his projects.

Today, these lights are coveted design classics and collector’s items worldwide. The 304 wall light combines this long design tradition with the distinctive character of raw copper and a timeless, functional aesthetic.
