Topan Pendant Light
by Verner Panton, 1960
from And Tradition
Verner Panton's first mass-produced lamp, this pendant was originally designed for the hotel and restaurant Astoria in Trondheim, Norway, in 1960. Topan lights hung all over, dividing large rooms into smaller and more intimate spaces. Topan's simplicity and sharp design have kept it going strong through the decades, and it's just as visually relevant now as it was then. The Topan Pendant provides just the right atmosphere for a cozy corner of your home, and works well as a dinner table pendant light when grouped.
