DESIGN BY MULLER VAN SEVEREN
ARCS SHADE

– INTRODUCTION –
Arcs Shades are part of a series of arched designs
created for HAY by Belgian duo Muller Van Severen.
Formed from a continuous chain of curved arches that
form a single element, the Arcs Shade creates a spatial
volume that plays with light and shape. The shade can
be used as a table lamp or pendant lamp suspended
from the ceiling, both options forming contrasts
in depth, colour and shape, resulting in an elegant
scalloped silhouette. Crafted in steel, Arcs is available
in several different colours or with a mirror surface.
The cord sets for the shades are sold separately and are
available in two designs – a table/floor variant with an
in-line rocker switch, and a pendant variant for ceiling
lamps. The cord sets are not supplied with a bulb.

ATTENTION
Ensure that the power supply to the
circuit has clearly been turned OFF
before installing the product. In some
countries, electrical installation must be
carried out by authorised electricians/
contractors; please check with your local
authority for guidance. The product must
not be modified in any way. HAY accepts
no responsibility for any products that
have been modified or tampered with.
If the external flexible cable or cord
of this luminaire is damaged, it should
be exclusively replaced by a qualified
electrician in order to avoid an electrical
hazard. Arcs Shade is designed for indoor
use only.
NOTE: If you are using this shade in
conjunction with a HAY Cord set, please
follow the instructions that have been
provided with it for safe installation.
Arcs Shade is designed to be used with
LED-based light sources only.
