Le Klint - Donut 195 Pendant - Small
The lamp is widely known simply as “Donut”. The designer Lise Navne was inspired by the round shape of a doughnut when she created the original version of the lamp.
The lamp is now available in two sizes – small (Ø47 cm) and large (Ø53 cm), with a hand-folded lampshade. It is completely closed in the top and bottom with a highly polished steel plate; in the latest versions the metal details are made from brushed brass. This provides an attractive finish to the very complex pleating.

Lise Navne is a qualified product designer from the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London. She graduated in 2006.
Lise Navne's debut for Le Klint came in 2007 with the Donut pendant. Taking classic Le Klint cross-pleating to an extreme, Lise has created a lamp that combines classical Le Klint craftsmanship and traditions with innovative design.
One cannot help but feel a certain fascination when considering the depth and richness of Kaare Klint’s legacy: More than sixty years have passed since Kaare Klint created the popular cross-pleated Fruit lamp and now a talented young designer picks up the exact pleating technique and creates a modern lamp with a design expression entirely of its own.
