The story

Gru, light lifted into place

In Italian, gru means two things: the crane that stands on one leg at the water’s edge, and the crane that lifts steel high above a city. Both reach out with perfect balance.

The Gru floor lamp does the same with light. From a round, polished base, a slender aluminium stem rises into two jointed arms held in balance by fine tension cables. At the end of the arm hangs a tapered parchment shade that glows warm and soft. Move the arm and the shade follows, so you can bring the light over a sofa, an armchair or a dining table, then fold it back when you need the space.

Instead of hiding how it works, the Gru shows it: polished aluminium, exposed joints and taut cables give it the look of a precise instrument. It suits modern, Italian modernist, Scandinavian, minimalist and industrial interiors, and looks as good switched off as it does switched on.

The shade

Why a parchment shade

Soft, even light

Parchment diffuses the bulb into a warm, glare-free glow, gentle on the eyes for reading.

Light down, glow around

The open, tapered shape sends focused light downwards while the shade itself glows softly.

Questions, answered

Before you order

Using the lamp

Can it light a sofa or a dining table?

Yes. The balanced arm reaches out from the base so the shade can hang over a sofa, armchair or dining table, giving pendant-style light without any ceiling installation.

Can I adjust the height?

Yes. Move the arm up to lift the shade for soft ambient light, or down to bring it close for reading. You can also swing it out over a sofa or table.

How does the balanced arm work?

The two aluminium arms are held in balance by tension cables at the joints, so the shade stays where you set it. Move the arm gently by hand.

Is it stable?

Yes. The heavy, polished chrome base, Ø 32 cm (12.6″), keeps the lamp steady, even with the arm reached out.

Which size should I choose?

Choose by the size of your room and how far you want the light to reach. If you are unsure, contact us with your room size and the furniture you want to light, and we will recommend a size.

The shade and light

What is the shade made of?

A parchment shade, which diffuses the light into a warm, soft, glare-free glow that is comfortable for reading.

Which bulb should I use?

One E26 bulb (standard in the US and Canada) or E27 bulb (standard in Europe and much of Asia), up to 40 W. A warm white LED of 2700–3000K gives the cosiest light through the parchment and stays cool to the touch.

How long is the cord?

The cord is 150 cm (59.1″) long. Longer cords are available on request: please contact us before ordering.

Is it dimmable?

The standard lamp is on/off only. A dimmable version is available on request: please contact us before ordering.

Care and ordering

How do I clean it?

Dust the aluminium and the shade with a soft, dry cloth or brush. Keep the parchment shade away from water and cleaning sprays.

Will it work with the voltage in my country?

Yes. It runs on AC 110–240 V, which covers the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, Australia and most other countries.

How soon will my order ship?

Each lamp is prepared at our factory in 5–10 days, then dispatched to you. You will see the delivery estimate for your country at checkout.
