Wästberg’s Sempé rail pendant light was named after its designer, the French Inga Sempé. Made of metal, the minimalist luminaire borrows its form from push pins and, perhaps a little less obviously, from traditional machine tool lighting used in the metal industry.

The Sempé pendant lamp looks simultaneously weighty and light both in terms of materials and aesthetics: the luminaire consists of three curved shades in aluminium decorated with cleats at the top – a detail that is repeated in other luminaire designs in the Sempé series. In the upgraded version of the luminaire, the shades hide efficient SMD LED light sources that infuse the space with rich full-spectrum light and superior colour rendering. Thanks to the advanced SMD technology, the light is always flicker-free and unaffected by the colour of the shade. The pendant is dimmable.
