ClassiCon
Plissee Pendant Lamp
Made of mouth-blown opal glass, the Plissée lampshade balances in the air like a delicate balloon of light. The elaborately pleated structure is handcrafted in a traditional Italian manufactory, lending the luminaire its soft, almost textile look. To a certain extent, Sebastian Herkner’s design references the famous paper lanterns from Japan and the lighting design by Isamu Noguchi. The glass shade of Plissée is frosted white on both the interior and exterior surface, creating a pleasant ambient light and also a light cone directed downwards. Two metal rings made of lacquered aluminium - optionally in black, bronze or brass - are attached to the upper bracket and to the lower opening.

ClassiCon
ClassiCon offer modern classics that are collector’s items—not only the masterpieces of yesterday, but of tomorrow as well. ClassiCon’s collection aims to produce individual pieces of great originality and formal perfection. Displaying the kind of value that lasts, ClassiCon collection pieces are destined to become coveted investments for future generations. ClassiCon has from its inception aspired not only to offer pieces by established figures such as Eileen Gray and Eckart Muthesius, but also to foster contemporary design and to present selected examples in its program. Naturally, the models chosen must display the kind of quality and advanced form that earns them the designation “classic”. That’s why ClassiCon is always open to new design ideas.
Sebastian Herkner
Born in Bad Mergentheim, Sebastian Herkner studied product design at the HfG Offenbach, where he founded his studio in 2006, drawing inspiration from original materials and techniques. Now one of the most important designers of his generation, he was named Designer of the Year at Maison et Objet Paris in 2019 and Best International Designer at the EDIDA awards in 2021.
His Bell Table for ClassiCon, from 2012, set a metal top on a hand-blown glass base and began his international recognition, joined by the Plissee Floor Lamp, whose pleated shade is in fact hand-blown glass.
