EMAKON-L Vintage Enamel Industrial / Factory Light: Ø 46 cm

 

These types of lights were initially conceived for assembly halls, workshops, storage facilities, and construction sites and were used from the early to late 20th century. In the description from original sources, the uniformity of the illuminated space was praised as one of its quality features. The light socket is recessed to prevent glare even at elevated heights.  

This is the largest of the three models made with a diameter of 46 cm.

More characteristics and restoration

 

Today this lamp is sought after for living and working spaces as well as for restaurants and bars. During its manufacture, two practical points were emphasized: form and function which set the criteria for the choice of materials, form and color scheme. For this reason, this lamp is of functional beauty, longevity, and timeless aesthetic. In this model, the dome and shade conically expand their diameter towards the bottom, creating a formal unit. The light socket is made of ceramic and can hold bulbs of up to 500 Watts. On the dome is screwed bakelite junction box with suspension eyelet. This is an authentic combination which was found in many workshops.
This light has been cleaned, then sealed to prevent further deterioration of the materials, rewired, and tested. It can be immediately installed.
