Stunningly prismatic and completely contemporary, the Etch Shade pendant lamp brings geometric beauty into the home. Made out of thin, digitally etched copper and stainless steel sheets, the hanging light fixture is a beacon in the dark, and not just because of its main purpose. Its shimmering facade is sculptural and reflective, even when not switched on.
Designed by Tom Dixon, a British design and manufacturing company of lighting and furniture, the Etch Shade pendant lamp has a perforated surface that casts peppered shadows on the surrounding walls for an artistic show. Glamorously industrial, the Etch Shade pendant lamp is particularly perfect for the modern home. It is a statement-making piece of decor that will have people talking.
