A331 “Beehive“
Pendant Light
By Alvar Aalto
| Shade | : White or Black Aluminium |
| Ring | : Brass-plated Steel |
| Dimensions | : 33 x 33 x 286 cm |
The A331, nicknamed “Beehive,” is one of Alvar Aalto’s most popular lighting designs. Suitable for homes and public spaces alike, “Beehive” creates a warm, diffuse light when switched on, a result of the ingenious design that features several rows of perforated steel rings. True to its nickname, “Beehive” retains its distinctive sculptural presence even when unlit and was originally designed for Finland’s University of Jyväskylä in 1953.
