ProfessionalProduct description
Based on Philips streetlights, originating from the former Philips factory sites in Eindhoven, this modern wall light is custom-made. This design transforms industrial heritage from the 1960s into a characterful lighting object for contemporary interiors. The lamp consists of an authentic fixture, giving a piece of Dutch design history a new function. The lamp consists of a cast aluminum shade, equipped with the original pressed glass dome with a prismatic structure. This refraction optic provides an atmospheric, diffuse light distribution and at the same time directed light downwards. The fixture is mounted on a metal tube on a plate, emphasizing its industrial character. The lamp is available in various finishes, including copper, brass, and steel. Each lamp is assembled from carefully restored vintage parts. The original fixtures have been professionally inspected, cleaned, and rewired for safe and reliable household use. The overall condition is excellent, retaining the authentic appearance inherent to the age and original function of the materials. The lamps are sandblasted and fitted with a new socket and wiring. Coating is possible in almost any RAL color, but bronze and brass are very chic! With an E27 fitting, this fixture is suitable for all LED bulbs, Philips Hue, Zigbee, etc. This floor lamp is a statement piece that comes into its own particularly well in a modern interior. The design bridges the gap between industrial, vintage, and modern styles and adds an element of historical depth to any space. Background Information: Research shows this to be the Philips HRL-10, although this fixture was also produced in the late 1950s in the U.K. by Eleco Limited. It is so far unclear whether Eleco was the designer and Philips sold the lamps under license or vice versa. There is some discussion material to be found on this, but it is not conclusive. However, there is earlier information about the Eleco version from the 1959 catalog with the type number 'HW.922 and the name 'Silver Ray Junior'.
