Lampe Gras 304L40: Distinctive wall light in chrome

The Lampe Gras 304L40 wall light is part of a series of lights whose origins date back to 1922. It was then that Bernard-Albin Gras developed the first designs for lights, which were originally intended for offices and industrial applications. The range was characterised by its simple, robust and, at the same time, ergonomic design. The basic construction required no screws or welded joints.

The 304L40 combines this distinctive design language with a chrome-coloured finish. The arms, body, fittings and the arrangement of the individual components are carefully crafted, giving the wall light its distinctive appearance.

The lights in DCW’s Lampe Gras series epitomise the fusion of functionalism and aesthetics. Le Corbusier was captivated by the modern design of these lights from an early stage and incorporated them into his projects. The clean construction and well-thought-out design ensure that the series remains a significant example of timeless lighting design to this day.

Today, Lampe Gras luminaires are design classics and collector’s items in high demand worldwide, particularly in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless, making the Lampe Gras 304L40 a wall light full of character.
