Lampe Gras No 302 lights: classic industrial design from the twenties
Made in
France
Design
With its industrial appearance, the DCWéditions Lampe Gras No 302 ceiling light spreads a special retro charm. The ceiling light was conceived by Bernard-Albin Gras in 1921 and is characterised by its extraordinary flexibility and high-quality workmanship. At that time, Le Corbusier was so impressed by the ceiling light that he had one installed at his atelier. Today, the Lampe Gras No 302 is sold as a re-edition by the French light manufacturer DCWéditions. Moreover, it is available in many different colours. Please note that the "copper raw" version needs some time to develop the characteristic patina. At first, the surfaces are all new and shiny.

Lampe Gras No 302 ceiling lights: target-oriented zone lighting
The jointed arms of the DCWéditions Lampe Gras No 302 ceiling light are extraordinarily flexible: the arm connected to the canopy may be swivelled in an angle of 86° and you may extend it from 55 cm to 92 cm. In addition, you may rotate the designer light by 360°. Furthermore, the other two joints of the ceiling light by DCW offer a range of 250° and 210°. Thereby, the head of the luminaire may be adjusted as needed to get the most out of its pleasant zone light. Directed at a wall or a ceiling, the Lampe Gras No 302 creates indirect light, which contributes to the base lighting of the room. The ceiling light may be equipped with an 11 watts energy-saving lamp or a similar retrofit LED bulb. Both illuminants are known for their low energy consumption.
The industrial style of the luminaire is nice, the flexible alignment is theoretically a good idea, especially if the ceiling connection is not where the light source is needed (kitchen worktop, island or similar). However, mounting is tricky, the bristle holes are close together, the space for the cables is very cramped, mounting is strenuous. Very disadvantageous is the change of the fixation from rotary mechanism plus locking screw (earlier) to exclusively rotary mechanism at the ball joint. Tightening is almost impossible, you need aids (e.g. an open-ended spanner), which is neither supplied nor referred to at all. Our assembly instructions still referred to the fixing screw. The articulated arm pulls the dowel out of the ceiling - all in all, a filigree, unstable construction with great doubts as to whether it will hold. The supplier's customer service tried to remedy the situation, but the information provided by the supplier was not very helpful.Der industrial Style der Leuchte ist schön, die flexible Ausrichtung theoretisch eine gute Idee, gerade, wenn sich der der Deckenanschluss nicht dort befindet, wo die Lichtquelle benötigt wird (Küchenarbeitsplatte, -insel o.ä.). Die Befestigung ist jedoch heikel, die Borhlöcher liegen eng zusammen, der Raum für die Kabel ist sehr beengt, die Montage anstrengend. Sehr nachteilig ist die Umstellung der Fixierung von Drehmechanismus plus Feststellschraube (früher) auf ausschließlich Drehmechanismus am Kugelgelenk. Ein Festziehen ist fast unmöglich, man benötigt Hilfsmittel (z.B. einen Maulschlüssel), der weder mitgeliefert noch auf den überhaupt hingewiesen wird. Unsere Montageanleitung verwies noch auf die Fixierschraube. Der Gelenkarm zieht den Dübel aus der Decke - alles in allem eine filigrane, instabile Konstruktion, bei der große Bedenken bestehen, ob sie hält. Der Kundenservice des Anbieters hat sich um Abhilfe bemüht, die Angaben des Lieferanten waren jedoch wenig hilfreich.

Flexible ceiling lights for various areas of application
Thanks to its precise adjustability, the DCWéditions Lampe Gras No 302 ceiling light is highly versatile. For example, as a zone light installed over counters in the kitchen, the ceiling light provides optimal light for cooking or for washing the dishes. Furthermore, the Lampe Gras is ideal for being mounted over a workbench, as it does not take up any space on the table while providing perfect lighting conditions. Last but not least, the ceiling light also really comes into its own in the living room. Suspended near a couch, it functions as a charming reading light.
