The Design Story
Poul Christiansen designed Model 172 in 1971 using his curved-fold technique. It comes in several sizes so it can hang over a kitchen, a dining table or in a lobby.
Why You’ll Love It
The curved folds make the shade look soft and alive. It is a timeless pendant that suits almost any room.
Made for Real Life
Plan on a licensed electrician: the fixture connects to a junction box in the ceiling or wall. To keep the pleats crisp, switch it off and dust it now and then with a soft, dry brush.
