Gräshoppa Pendant
Design by Greta M. GrossmanThe Gräshoppa Pendant has emerged from Greta M. Grossman’s original lamp design from 1947, using the signature steel shade that successfully combines lightness and functionality into a modern yet organic character. The whimsical design language is characteristic of Grossman’s pieces and is strongly identified throughout her collection. Hanging from the ceiling, the lamp brings a modernistic style and classic elegance to any decor and is perfectly suited over a kitchen counter or paired over a dining table.
