Overview

Knitterling by Ingo Maurer combines the traditional shape of a lampshade with translucent Japanese paper. Due to the low material input, paper and bent metal wires, Knitterling is an extremely sustainable product. The lampshades are handmade in Munich. The shade is slightly crumpled as a deliberate design element. Unlike Knitterling Version I, Version II also has a paper cover at the bottom. In the center is a circular opening. The paper lamp is not suitable for rooms with high humidity. Manufactured by Ingo Mauer.
