Description
NUS Pendant L is a large fique pendant light by Let’s Pause that transforms natural vegetable fibres into a striking piece of sculptural lighting. Handcrafted using traditional crochet techniques, its generous proportions, organic silhouette and delicate open weave create a harmonious balance between craftsmanship and contemporary design.
Measuring 60 cm in diameter and 75 cm in height, NUS Pendant L brings an expressive architectural presence to spacious interiors. Its natural mesh structure gently filters the light, creating an inviting atmosphere and a beautiful interplay of soft shadows and woven textures.
Materials
The defining material of NUS Pendant L is natural fique fibre (Furcraea andina), extracted from a resilient succulent plant that grows in large rosettes of elongated leaves. These leaves provide a strong and flexible plant fibre with distinctive natural textures and subtle colour variations.
At Let’s Pause, we celebrate the original beauty of natural materials and their potential to become contemporary design objects through traditional craftsmanship. Each thread of fique retains a unique organic character, contributing to the individuality of every handcrafted lamp.
The open woven surface allows light to travel gently through the natural fibres, highlighting their texture and casting delicate shadows throughout the surrounding space.
Despite its generous size, the mesh construction gives NUS Pendant L a lightweight appearance. The flexible textile contrasts with a discreet aluminium frame in a matching tone, creating an elegant balance between structure and movement.
Available in a selection of natural and contemporary finishes, including off-white, light brown, copper, black and nude pink depending on availability, NUS Pendant L complements a wide variety of interior design styles.

Artisanal Technique
The NUS Pendant L large fique pendant light is carefully handcrafted using traditional crochet techniques. Skilled women artisans work the vegetable yarn stitch by stitch, gradually creating an open mesh structure that combines flexibility, strength and visual delicacy.
This traditional weaving process requires patience and precision. The repetition of handmade stitches produces a harmonious surface while preserving the subtle variations that make each piece unique.
The woven shade is gently supported by an aluminium frame, allowing the natural fibre to fall like a skirt. Its organic drape brings movement and softness to the sculptural volume of the lamp.
When illuminated, the open crochet structure creates beautiful shadow patterns that enhance the surrounding architecture and bring warmth to contemporary interiors.
With its impressive proportions, NUS Pendant L is particularly suitable for dining rooms, spacious living areas, hotel entrance halls and distinctive hospitality projects. It can become a statement piece or be arranged in groups at different heights to create a striking lighting composition.
Each lamp includes a 2.5-metre black textile cable, black lamp holder and black aluminium ceiling canopy for installation.
For warm ambient lighting, we recommend an E27 LED bulb with a colour temperature of 2700 K.
For smaller interiors, discover NUS Pendant M, which shares the same natural beauty and traditional crochet craftsmanship.
NUS Pendant L reflects the Wild Luxury philosophy of Let’s Pause: transforming natural fibres into contemporary objects while preserving the authenticity of traditional techniques and the beauty of their origins.
