1965 Pendant

The 1965 Pendant was originally designed by

Paavo Tynell in 1948. Like many of his best-

known designs, the pendant was designed for

the Finland House in New York - one of the

most ambitious and successful projects of all

time to showcase Finnish design.

Perfecting the techniques of metal finishes,

Tynell developed the 1965 Pendant with his

exceptional ability to capture and translate a

grace and exuberant lightness into his brass

creations. Characterized by its triangular

perforation pattern, an artistic detail utilised

by Tynell in several of his lighting objects,

the 1965 Pendant reflects the distinguished

craftsmanship of the Finnish designer. With

a frosted glass diffuser that softens the light,

the pendant contributes to a subtle and

tranquil environment.
