Salvaged from a railway station outside of Budapest, these oversized Hungarian pendants were originally manufactured in the 1950s. Imposing and industrial by design, each two-part vitreous enamelled shade features original manufacturer’s markings and venting that adds character. A striking convex glass lens draws the eye, making these great statement pieces for restaurants, bars and shops.
We salvage high volumes of industrial and decorative lighting from this landlocked former Eastern Bloc country. Hungarian industrial enamel shades are often available in blue or white, whereas the decorative glassware has more of a clean line and timeless design. In the mid to late 20th century, the Communist east produced a wide variety of lights for both industrial, commercial and residential applications often manufactured in three scaled versions to cater for varying bulb wattage.

Their product is invariably beautiful and wonderfully restored. To have lights that have seen so much and then get a second life is inspiring in many ways.

Love the lights, love your ethos. Absolutely what more companies need to be doing. I have my Retro Czech Ceiling Lights (V2) in my dining room and the spray of light they give off is gorgeous and unusual.
