Options
Similar to the Ox and Giraffe, this fluorescent light fixture originates from the late DDR era. Looking at the design and materials, the lamp was most likely designed around the late 1970s, but has been produced up to the eighties. The composite and bakelite ends of the fixture are visually connected by the two glass tubes. These lights were installed in large quantities in order to illuminate areas from great heights.
ORIGIN
These fixtures originate from the abandoned warehouse of a former state-owned cable manufacturer. They hung in one of the factory’s basements, where it illuminated a room for heavy machinery.
RESTORATION
All our lights are restored by hand with the greatest care. As unique piece of heritage, we seek to preserve the light’s authentic appearance. We present the lamp in it’s original finish, or re-finish the light in it’s original color. The lamp has been completely rewired to current standards, and fully assembled and tested to European Legislation, We hope that it may be preserved for many centuries to come.
