1970s Czech Industrial Zinc Lamp

The grand proportions and graphic shape of this vintage industrial lamp make a striking impact. Made in Czechia in the 1970s, this piece would have originally been hung to illuminate a workspace in a factory. Angled sides are intended to direct the light towards a tabletop or work surface below; the clean corners of the pyramidal form cut a bold silhouette. The unpolished texture of the zinc coated steel and the visible mechanism of the lamp head give this impressive piece a mechanical appeal.
