A very rare medical operating light designed by the famed Czech designer Franta Anyz, manufactured in the 1930s. This stunning light has been sensitively restored retaining many of the original features and finish, making it a real collector's piece.
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.

The height can be adjusted through a counter-weight mechanism within the chrome plated upright stand. The lamp head comprises a large reflector and original glass screen with full adjustment and rotation.
The light is supplied rewired and tested with a new screw (E27) lamp holder, 4 metres of elephant grey braided cable, an inline switch and a plug.
