The Nelson Bubble Lamps by Herman Miller are considered icons of mid-century modern design since their introduction in 1952, featuring the famed spray-coated plastic material that hugs a steel wire frame. The Nelson Lantern Bubble Pendant has a frame that peaks through the plastic, creating a vertical pattern that is beautiful when the fixture is lit or unlit. The Bubble Lamps are so emblematic of mid-century modern design that they reside in the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York.

The lantern light arrived ahead of schedule, and the packaging was quite secure. We appreciated the full selection of mid-century style lighting available on this website. We're looking forward to installing it.

Highest quality, beautiful piece

We ordered the Lantern Nelson pendant in small to go over our nightstands. We both have a design background and are very picky about lights. This one does not disappoint. Although it's not the popular Saucer model, it's still very Nelson-esque and gives a similar vibe. The material is somewhat malleable - it's fabric so it's not a hard plastic. I know it can be hard to tell if you've never seen it in person. The bottom of the light has a shiny chrome ring. It's packed quite well in the box. The box does say YLighting on the outside and Nelson lamp with an image, so it might not be safe to receive delivery in an environment where thievery might be an issue. The only con is that the suspension wire is not entirely straight out of the box, so it might take time for gravity to work it out into a straight line. Would I buy it again? Of course!

Reminiscent of traditional Asian lanterns

We like this light because of its Asian-like feel in our Japanese influenced decorated home. We installed it in our entryway and it matches the similar George Nelson light above our dining room table. (full disclosure... I am filling out this review because Y-Lighting offered me a $25 gift certificate for additional purchases)

We have a narrow room that needed a light fixture, so we decided to try the Lantern. Looks great, puts out a surprising amount of light with a 100 watt bulb. Lamp was packed very well, super quick delivery from Y Lighting. Thanks YLighting!

Herman Miller

One of the most influential brands in American design, renowned for pioneering iconic mid-century modern furniture and lighting solutions, Herman Miller began its storied history in 1905 as Star Furniture Co. in Zeeland, Michigan. In 1923, businessman Herman Miller lent his name to the company, signaling a new chapter under the visionary leadership of his son-in-law, D.J. De Pree. This marked the beginning of Herman Miller's transformation into kingmakers of mid-century design.
