Design George Nelson, 1952
Steel skeleton, self-webbing soft plastic
Made in USA by Herman Miller
Part of the Nelson Bubble Lamp series, the Nelson Propeller Bubble Pendant has a sculpted quality with angular twists in its shade. It’s designed to delicately float overhead and add charm and personality to any room. George Nelson designed the series in 1952. He was inspired by a set of silk-covered Swedish hanging lamps.
Use with up to 150 watt bulb. Light bulb not included. Hardwiring required.
The Nelson Propeller Bubble Pendant has a striking presence due to the angular dents in its understructure. This sculptural pendant light comes with a ceiling plate and a 6 foot long cord to affix it to the ceiling. Nelson designed the Bubble Lamps in 1952, when he came across a set of Swedish hanging lamps and wanted one for his office. “One day, Bonniers, a Swedish import store in New York, announced a sale of these lamps. I rushed down with one of the guys in the office and found one shopworn sample with thumbmarks on it and a price of $125,” Nelson wrote. The steep price tag, for that time, prompted Nelson to design his own.
