This Little Thorny Oyster is considered a true classic. Its pure and timeless design was strongly influenced by the Bauhaus-movement and has been in production since the 1920s.  The fixture consists of a thick, angled porcelain base that includes a porcelain E27 socket and a unique, hand-blown glass dome.

Together with the ‘Little Pearl Oyster’ and the ‘Saddle Oyster’ this Little Thorny Oyster was found at a former state-owned manufacturing company. Many of these state-owned companies were sold by the German government after the reunification in the early nineties. As its new owner only used a fragment of the extensive premises, the majority of the buildings have remained deserted for more than two decades, leaving the dust-ridden interior untouched.

The fixture comes with:
-42 watt E27 halogen bulb
– 1,5 meter matt black cable
– passport describing the history and origin of the lamp.

The fixture has been completely rewired to current standards, and is assembled and tested to EN 60598 directive of European Harmonized Legislation. US & Canada wiring available on request.
