Vintage wall-mounted projectors manufactured by the Czechoslovakian manufacturer Meopta in the 1940s. The convex lens provides a focused beam of light while the black steel bracket allows for angled adjustment, perfect to light an object or wall in a variety of settings.
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.

Comprising a black aluminium enclosure the wall lights feature the original convex lens, as well as the manufacturer’s detailing and logo embossed on the front of the lamp.
