Size: W330 D330 H300 Total Length 1000 Brand: Artek Designer: Alvar Aalto Color: White x Chrome This is the "A331" designed by Alvar Aalto. Designed in 1953, the overlapping shades resemble a honeycomb, hence the name Beehive. It features a glare-free design that softly diffuses the light source, which I believe is a testament to how they approached light in the Nordic countries with their short daylight hours. This is a timeless design that has been manufactured by Artek for many years, and it is a lighting fixture that has been appreciated across generations. The fact that Aalto interacted with Bauhaus' Walter Gropius, Le Corbusier, and Moholy-Nagy is also something to ponder. Please consider this iconic piece of Nordic design, which combines both aesthetic beauty and the quality of light. There is distortion and discoloration on the bottommost shade due to aging.
