About the Item
A commanding piece of cinematic equipment, this large spotlight was produced by Fototon in Hungary during the 1960s for use on professional film sets. Built for intensity and precision, the lamp features a robust bronze colored steel housing with a large Fresnel glass lens, designed to project powerful, focused light across a set.
Its raw industrial form and authentic bronze patina make it as visually striking as it is historically significant. Without a base, the spotlight retains its original, utilitarian character—ideal for wall mounting, ceiling suspension, or display as a sculptural design object.
Fototon was one of the foremost manufacturers of Eastern European film and stage lighting, and their spotlights are now prized for their bold presence and connection to mid-century cinematic history.
