PENDANTS
The 1967 & 1972 Pendants by Paavo Tynell
Encompassing several variations of a classic 1950s Tynell
design, this family of classic ceiling-mounted pendants
expands on the design language he developed in 1948 for
the 1965 pendant.

1967 Pendant
The classic pendant family has two
shade material options – one in canvas
(model 1967) and one in bamboo (model
1972) – both natural materials selected
for their performance and durability.
Although broadly similar in profile, the
1972 is wider at the top of the shade
than the 1967, resulting in a greater
amount of light being cast upwards to
the ceiling. In both styles, a central core
keeps the shade in place, a polished
brass canopy sits at the top of the wire,
connecting the light to the ceiling. Below
the bulb, a fabric diffuser modulates the
light and, beneath this, a decorative
brass detail gives each lamp a flourish
of character, and subtly influences the
play of light it generates.
