Le Klint - Swirl 1 - Pendant Lamp - Medium
Øivind Slaatto drew inspiration for the SWIRL series from nature and basic mathematical principals. He wanted to find a way to incorporate the detail construction of a snail’s shell as well as his fascination with fractals.

To this day the craftsmanship of the cross pleated lamp shade is unique and is a handicraft that is only mastered at Le Klint’s original Pleating Studio in Odense, Denmark. To become a skilled pleating technician at Le Klint takes approximately three years and most of the employees in the pleating studio have been with the company for more than 25 years. Due to the vast experience within this group, they are often consulted when new ideas are brought to the table. All parts are made from the best materials and often produced by local companies situated close to Le Klint. The parts are put together at the facility in Odense and shipped from here to all parts of the world.
