The simple and stylish A110 ‘Hand Grenade’ lamp was designed for the building of the Finnish Engineers’ Association in 1952. The light features a finishing ring in either brass, black or white, which is perforated to create a diffused illumination, allowing a warming and enticing glow wherever it is placed.

As one of the great architects and furniture designers of the 20th century, Finnish designer Alvar Aalto breathed life and warmth into modernism, placing emphasis on "organic" geometry; supple, natural materials; and a respect for human feeling.
Alvar Aalto's collection of mid-century furniture and lighting is produced exclusively by Scandinavian brand Artek including the iconic Artek 60 Stool.
