No. 302 Hanging Lamp
The No. 302 Hanging Lamp is a hand-folded, ceiling-suspended pendant light with a radially pleated, flattened-cone shade intended for indoor ambient lighting. Its shade is made from non-woven fabric of recycled synthetic fibres and natural fibres from PEFC-certified forests, screen printed with water-based inks and treated with a non-toxic fire retardant; it includes an adjustable 120 in (3 m) white woven cord, standard base, and white canopy. The shade measures approximately 17.75 x 8.25 in (45 x 21 cm), requires simple assembly, and uses a candelabra-base LED bulb that is not included; each piece is handmade in Montreal, may vary slightly, and is made upon request with an approximate 1 to 2 week lead time.

Product Insights
Part of Lucie Leroux's Mille et un plis series, named for its 302 hand-folded pleats. More resistant than paper to tearing and creasing, and stable in humid conditions. Approximately 17.75" x 8.25" (45 x 21 cm). Radial pleats catch light, cast fine shadows and create a textile rhythm; light diffuses through the shade and is brightest at the lower apex. Socket base is inconsistent across sources: listing says candelabra E12 LED, maker spec page says standard medium E26. Main tradeoffs: ambient rather than task light; dry cleaning only; bulb not included and socket base uncertain.

Hanging the No. 302 as a ceiling pendant
This pendant lamp hangs from the ceiling using the included connection kit, which comes with an adjustable white woven cord and a white canopy. It can be installed with the tip up or down to suit your space, and the cord can be adjusted for your ceiling height.[1,2]
Installing the No. 302 hanging lamp
The No. 302 is a hardwired ceiling pendant that calls for simple assembly, with instructions included to walk you through setup. Since it connects to your ceiling wiring, the brand advises installing it safely with an electrician. Plan for a white canopy and a woven cord about 6 feet 10 inches long, with an E26 bulb of up to 60W (LED only, not included), for indoor use.[1,2]
Bulb Specifications for the No. 302 Hanging Lamp
Since the lamp does not include a bulb, one must be supplied using only LED types. For installation, a standard medium E26 bulb with a maximum wattage of sixty watts is required. Choosing different light bulbs may also change the lamp's color compared to the product photos.[1,2]
Cozy pendant lighting for dining or bedroom
This medium-sized hanging lamp suits any room in the house, indoors only. Hang it above the dining table to create a soft, convivial atmosphere, or place it in the bedroom for a more intimate ambience. Shown installed in a cozy corner nook, it casts soft directional lighting.[2,3]
A warm, diffused glow from above
This white pleated pendant hangs from a thin cord and is designed to light a room with a soft ambient glow rather than a direct beam. In the product photos, the interior light shines through the thin, translucent-looking shade, glowing brightest near the lower apex and creating a warm gradient across the pleats. The diffusing quality shown in these images is based on the photos rather than a stated manufacturer specification.[3,4,5]
Lighting with a lamp treated with a non-toxic fire retardant
Hang this pendant when you want a ceiling light that comes with a non-toxic fire retardant treatment, as listed in its materials. Laboratoire Textile says the lamp's non-woven fabric stays stable in humid conditions, so the treatment can be applied without the lamp losing its shape. Note these are the brand's and merchant's stated claims about the treatment, not independently verified test results.[1,6]
A pendant lamp composed of mixed materials
This hanging lamp is made from a blend of natural fibers, synthetic fibers, and recycled materials, with nickel-plated metallic rings and a snap button in its construction. It suits shoppers looking for a ceiling pendant whose design brings together different material types. The non-toxic fire retardant treatment is part of how the piece is finished.[1]
