Spun steel shade
Poetic in their simplicity, elevated in their attention to detail, Ode Lamps shine a light on the moments people spend together. Soft, anti-glare LEDs and spun steel shades create a pool of diffused illumination, appealing to our instincts to come together around light.

Herman Miller was a West Michigan businessman who helped his son-in-law, D.J. De Pree, buy the Michigan Star Furniture Company in 1923. De Pree had been working at the company, which opened in 1905, since he was hired in 1909 as a clerk. De Pree knew his father-in-law was a man of integrity, so he decided to rename the company after him. By the middle of the 20th century, the name Herman Miller had become synonymous with “modern” furniture. Working with legendary designers George Nelson and Charles and Ray Eames, the company produced pieces that would become classics of industrial design.
