Flying 58 Pendant by Made by Hand

The original Flying 58 Pendant by Boris Berlin, from Made by Hand of Copenhagen, sold here in the 120V version.

Flying is a family of sculptural pendants by Boris Berlin, whose work is in museums including the Design Museum Denmark, Die Neue Sammlung in Munich, MoMA and the V&A. A 3D-knitted shade is stretched between a wavy aluminum frame and a center piece, and the LED in the top shines down through the knit, so the lamp seems to float. Pendant light in 4 colors.

Why we carry it

We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009, and Made by Hand works with Danish designers and craftspeople to make lamps meant to last, from knitted shades to jute, rice paper and spun metal.

Buy once: durability and care

Our advice: switch off the power, then dust gently with a soft, dry cloth.
