A functionalist pendant light fixture produced by the swedish manufacturer asea in the 1940s, attributed to the architect gunnar asplund. The softly shaped shade is crafted from opal glass and is held in place by a chrome metal fixture.

By the late 1940s, asea had acquired several rival companies, solidifying its position as one of sweden's premier manufacturers of light fixtures.
