Nelson Saucer Crisscross Bubble Pendant Light by Hay

George Nelson Saucer Crisscross Bubble Design from the 1950s

The Nelson Saucer Bubble pendant light, designed by George Nelson in the 1950s, marked the beginning of a revolution in the lighting industry. The designer was inspired by a series of Swedish silk-covered pendant lights that he wanted to use for his office.

However, the silk-covered lamps were too expensive for him, so he used his creativity to create his own lamp. To this end, he decided to use a plastic spray developed by the US military and spray it onto the shaped steel frame. The result is the Nelson Saucer Bubble light, reminiscent of insect cocoons, which draws everyone's attention.
