&Tradition Blown Pendant SW3 - Silver Lustre
Best sculptural statement piece for modern dining and living spaces.
The Blown SW3 Pendant by &Tradition, designed by Samuel Wilkinson, is an arresting lighting fixture featuring a mouth-blown glass shade with a unique quilted surface.

It is available in two distinct finishes: a sandblasted matte opaque white for a subtle glow, or a translucent silver luster that highlights intricate textures. This piece is ideal for adding sophisticated, sculptural illumination to dining rooms or living areas, reflecting a commitment to Nordic craftsmanship and contemporary design.
