Pendant Light A110 “Hand Grenade”

This elegant pendant light is nicknamed “Hand Grenade” for its distinctive shape.

Composed of a lacquered steel shade and an inner ring,

Pendant Light A110 provides an exceptional warm-toned quality of light.

“Hand Grenade” projects both direct and indirect light onto ceilings,

and its perforated inner ring creates a corona effect around the pendant light while simultaneously reducing glare.

“Hand Grenade” was designed for the building Alvar Aalto created for the Finnish Engineers’ Association.

Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by four young idealists: Alvar and Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen,

and Nils-Gustav Hahl. Their goal was “to sell furniture and to promote a modern culture of living by exhibitions and other educational means.”

In keeping with the radical spirit of its founders, Artek today remains an innovative player in the world of modern design,

developing new products at the intersection of design, architecture, and art.

The Artek collection consists of furniture, lighting, and accessories designed by Finnish masters and leading international designers.

It stands for clarity, functionality, and poetic simplicity.
