Origin: Czechoslovakia (former)

Much of the lighting we salvage and restore from the former Eastern Bloc was produced in the manufacturing powerhouses of former Czechoslovakia. Under Communist rule the same design was often manufactured in three scaled versions to cater for varying bulb wattage. The country is also famed for its beautiful glassware, with both wall and ceiling opaline glass lights often being used in public and residential settings, such as housing blocks and schools.

Restoration

In the mid 20th century, lights were designed with care and made to last. The work we do at skinflint is based on respecting and preserving the heritage of each piece. We have three guiding principles: to salvage the best lighting from the 1920s to the 1970s; to restore every piece sensitively - without compromising its character; and to restore each fixture to the highest modern standards.

Retro Czech crosshatch wall lights (clear)

Description

Playing their part in a rich 200 year history of Bohemian glassmaking, these 1960s moulded glass lights once adorned hotel corridors in Plzeň, former Czechoslovakia. A clear glass shade with a crosshatch design casts a faint pattern when illuminated. Featuring a Bakelite base, these lights can be mounted on walls and ceilings, perfect for creating drama in smaller spaces in bars and restaurants.
