Pulpo Bent Lighting
BENT LIGHTING
Resembling a lampshade but with a room-filling presence, bent is characterised by its curved section of glass (single or double).
The regular grooved, but random glass surface was created by casting fluid glass mass into a special mould. So every single hand-made piece has its own character.
Designer
SEBASTIAN HERKNER
Poetic compositions, refined shapes and delicate surfaces mark his designs: Sebastian Herkner who founded his Offenbach am Main based studio in 2006, creates furniture, lighting and textiles, as well as spaces and installations – often combining contemporary techniques with traditional craftsmanship.
Without leaving out the importance of material and sensory beauty, the multifaceted designer follows a strong conceptional approach: “I transport and interpret characteristics from various contexts of society and culture, and implement them in new artefacts”, says Sebastian Herkner.
Repeatedly awarded, the design teaches at the university, collaborates with fairs as well as museums, and works for some of the most prestigious design manufacturers of our time. pulpo got to know the creative mind during various international design shows, as he was still a student.
Today, the designer and the house of design are bound by a close and friendly relationship, allowing a dynamic exchange when playing creative ping-pong over ideas or figuring out the ideal design language for pulpo.

CARE & CLEANING
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Regular cleaning and maintenance is important in order to keep your pulpo product looking its best and to prolong its life. Always remove any kind of dirt as soon as possible. We recommend that you first test a small, invisible area to ensure that no colour change or damage arises to the product. Do not use materials for maintenance that contain abrasive agents or are basic, acid or organic.
GLASS CLEANING
For dusting and light cleaning of glass use a soft, dry cloth. For further cleaning gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth wrung in clean water and a non-abrasive commercial glass cleaner. Dry immediately afterwards with a soft, dry and clean cloth. Please note that bubbles, streaks and other variations in size and colour are part of the production process, and not defects of the design or production of handmade glass.
METAL CLEANING
Steel Powder Coated
For dusting and light cleaning of the base, use a soft and dry cloth. For further cleaning, gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth wrung in clean water and a neutral detergent or soap flakes of good quality. Dry immediately afterwards with a soft, dry and clean cloth. For the best maintenance of the product, care for it regularly, protect it against direct sunlight and heat, and try to keep it away from moisture, grease, and other dirt. Furthermore, protect the surfaces against sharp objects and other that might scratch.
