LE KLINT Snowdrop XS pendant light paper
Handmade designer hanging light Snowdrop The Snowdrop pendant light, whose lampshade is hand-pleated in white paper, guarantees atmospheric lighting in many living rooms. For more than 75 years now, Le Klint has been producing designer lights in Odense, on the island of Funen in Denmark, which are largely characterised by the unique features of the lampshades. These are made of paper or plastic and are still pleated by hand, because to this day it has not been possible to create a machine which can perform this delicate pleating technique to the standard required by the manufacturer. This is why we still employ pleaters, who learn their craft in a three-year apprenticeship at Le Klint. As well as many new creations, the classic lights from the 1940s are still to this day among the best-sellers of the renowned Danish lamp manufacturer, which began when the architect P. V. Jensen-Klint pleated a lampshade for a paraffin lamp. The company was founded in 1943, the same year as the first shop was opened in Copenhagen, in a location where it still stands today.
