Description

 A330S Golden Bell Pendant Lamp, an iconic piece of mid-century modern design. It was originally created in 1937 by Aino and Alvar Aalto for the interior of the Savoy Restaurant in Helsinki. 


The "Golden Bell" is celebrated for its sculptural, streamlined aesthetic and functional design:
Material: It is typically crafted from a single piece of hand-spun brass (or steel), which gives it its seamless, organic shape.
Perforated Rim: The characteristic perforated ring at the bottom of the shade is not just decorative; it creates a characteristically diffuse light and shadow effect.
Dimensions: Pendant measures 6 inches W x 8 H, on length of cloth covered cord.
