The 411 Black Floor Lamp is an icon of the 20th century - dating back to 1922 when the first thoughtful lines were drawn by Bernard-Albin GRAS, and since then the family has only grown. Conceived for offices and industry, the range was totally unique, with its simple, robust and yet highly ergonomic design. The basic shape has no screws or welded joints.
The functional and aesthetic exudes from the 411 Floor Lamp with black body and lampshade. Especially the design of the individual details such as the arms, body, fittings and joints are fantastically original, well thought out and way ahead of their time. Le Corbusier was seduced early on by the modern design of Lampe GRAS and used the lamps extensively in his projects.
Today, La Lampe GRAS lamp has become a sought-after collector's item all over the world, especially in France, the USA and Japan. Bernard-Albin Gras' talented and visionary design has proven to be timeless.
