Le Klint 172 pendant light is perhaps the most well-known Le Klint lamp. It dates back to the 1960s when Jan Klint, the managing director of Le Klint at the time, realised that even classics need new incentives. A young student of architecture and a shining talent in design, Poul Christiansen, turned up and brought models for a range of modern and magical lamps with him. With their seemingly random order, the flowing lines of the 172 range create a strong contrast to the straight folds of traditional pleated lamps. The first 172 lamp was released in 1971, and new sizes have been added to the collection also the 21st century.
