Made in Odense since 1943
The story of Le Klint dates back to the beginning of the
20th Century when a hand pleated lampshade was folded to
fit a paraffin lamp both designed by architect and master
of engineering, P.V. Jensen Klint.
A team of friends and family members worked hard to refine
this new shade and in return, received one as a gift of gratitude
for their time. The Klint family handicraft became a real business
in 1943, led by Tage Klint, who pioneered a new decisive detail
to the lampshades, in the shape of an elastic collar.
LE KLINT is known throughout most parts
of the world for its unique craftsmanship.
