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

Lampe Gras 304SW wall light – a timeless classic with a distinctive raw copper patina

The Lampe Gras 304SW wall light embodies the unmistakable blend of functionality and aesthetics. Its clean lines and striking combination of materials lend it a timeless appeal that blends harmoniously into both modern and classic interiors.

The origins of the Lampe Gras collection date back to 1922, when Bernard-Albin Gras developed his first well-thought-out designs. Originally conceived for offices and industrial spaces, the range impressed with its simple, robust yet ergonomic design. The basic construction required no screws or welded joints.

The design of the arms, bodies, fittings and joints demonstrates exceptional originality and a design language that was far ahead of its time. Le Corbusier was fascinated by the modern design of the Lampe Gras from an early stage and used the lights in his projects.

Today, the models are highly sought-after design classics and collectors’ items worldwide, particularly in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras’s visionary design has proved to be timeless.

Raw Copper finish: The lampshade is initially supplied bare and untreated. The natural patina only begins to develop after unpacking and is influenced by air, humidity and temperature. The surface may darken visibly after as little as 14 days. Over time, the characteristic raw copper look develops, with its own unique nuances.

Integrated switch: The 304SW is designed for flush-mounted installation in the wall with a switch. Alternatives include the 304 version without a switch and the 304CA with a cable for connection to a power point.

The Lampe Gras 304SW wall light thus combines iconic design with a practical control solution and a surface that evolves naturally over time.
