Tom Dixon was inspired by India for his Beat hanging lamp series. The water vessels there formed the basis for the various lamp models. With the help of the dying skills of Indian master craftsmen, the Beat lamps are hand-hammered from brass. There is therefore a lot of traditional craftsmanship in the designer lamps. Nevertheless, the light bodies do not appear clumsy; on the contrary, they have an elegant, glamorous style. The ceiling mount made of black painted metal rounds off the successful overall impression. Tom Dixon's Beat Shades are lamps that stand out and are memorable due to their striking design. Beat is available in four different versions: Wide has a very flat and wide shade, Fat has a small but wide shade, Tall has a long, funnel-shaped shade and Stout has a round, squat shade. The Beat lamps look great both in arrangements of several different lamps and as individual objects. The collection also includes three vessels made of smooth, unpolished brass: Beat Slim, Beat Drop and Beat Top.
