Made by Hand Workshop W2 Pendant

Made by Hand Workshop W2 Pendant is a pendant light designed by A. Wedel-Madsen in 1951 for the Copenhagen brand Made by Hand.

We sell the 120V AC version, wired for North American homes.

The Design Story

A. Wedel-Madsen designed the Workshop lamp in 1951 to light craftspeople at work, and its honest industrial shape is still made today by Made by Hand. The shade is spun aluminum, powder coated in deep, saturated colors.

Why You’ll Love It

It is a genuine mid-century design, not a look-alike. The broad shade puts light down on the table or counter where you need it. The removable diffuser covers the bulb so the light stays comfortable to look at. Hung in a row over an island or alone over a dining table, it has quiet authority.

Made for Real Life

Plan on a licensed electrician: the fixture connects to a ceiling junction box and is finished with its canopy. Our tip: wipe the metal shade with a soft cloth, lightly dampened with water if needed, and dry it.
