Nelson Cigar CrissCross Bubble Pendant
Summary
The Nelson Cigar CrissCross Bubble Pendant is available in two sizes, and comes with a steel ceiling plate and a 6-foot cord to attach it to the ceiling. George Nelson first designed the Bubble Lamps in 1952, when he came across a Swedish hanging lamp that he wanted to acquire for his office. He was challenged by the expensive price and decided to make his own. The result was a series of elemental, spherical shapes like a rounded apple, a wide saucer, and a shapely pear, among others.
