It all began in Odense, Denmark, 1989.
In a small lamp shop, the Herstal family turned an idea into form.
An idea born not from grand gestures, but from something ordinary – the delicate spokes of a bicycle wheel.

Lines of steel. A circle of balance.
Those spokes became design.
Design became light.
And the first Herstal lamp was born –
sharp in its function, soft in its glow.

From that moment, light was never just light.
It was mood.
It was presence.
It was the quiet rhythm of a home,
the soft glow in a room,
the pulse of a city seen from inside.

Through the years, collections grew.
Some lamps found their place as timeless icons.
Others became the discreet companions of everyday life.
Each one carrying the same promise:
to make light both useful and beautiful.

Herstal has always been this balance.
Minimalist, but never cold.
Discreet, but never dull.
Simple, but with character that lasts.

Today, Herstal stands stronger than ever –
always true to its roots.
Still Danish at heart.
Still devoted to light that does more than shine.

Light that sets the tone.
Light that frames the moment.
Light that lingers – long after the switch is off.

Herstal. Where there is light, there is more.
