The "Campbell's Tomato Soup" tin can is filled with a reflector and LED lightbulb. Canned Light is adjustable and can be mounted as a wall lamp. Ideal in kitchens and above small dining tables or counters. It is literally a "light in a tin" with a special nod to the Pop-Art era, as all the parts are packed inside the can, which must be opened in order to mount the light.

Ingo Maurer started to design exceptional lamps, lighting systems, and objects beginning in the middle of the 1960s, which his company produces and distributes worldwide. Manual production by hand is an integral part of their corporate philosophy and all Ingo Maurer designs have been hand-made in their production facility in Munich, Germany since 1970.
