History
Created in the 70’s/80’s by the Polish lighting manufacturer ‘Polam Wilkasy’. The smaller size of these pendants made them extremely popular in industrial installations which were subject to remodelling. Their solid cast aluminium construction and sealed structure provided a resilience that would guarantee a long service life in volatile environments. Their overengineered design firmly ranks them in the ‘explosion-proof’ category of industrial lighting of the cold war era.
About
Recovered from a decommissioned ceramics factory in Ostrava, Czech Republic; these pendants had remained in remarkably good condition. Through a process of vapour blasting, the aluminium castings have been carefully preserved so, crucially, they still retain their priceless evidence of age.

I was searching for something different, with a unique story and a history – and I found it. The quality is second-to-none, and the overall service was exceptional. I’ll be ordering another set as soon as the renovations are completed.
