About the Item

Each flush mount vintage fixture features a solid pale grey porcelain base paired with a cylindrical opaline milk-glass shade. The glass diffuser produces a soft, evenly distributed glow when illuminated, providing comfortable ambient light without glare. This makes them particularly suitable for bathrooms, hallways, circulation spaces, and smaller rooms where low-profile, dependable lighting is essential. Salvaged from hotels in Prague during the 1970s, these vintage flush mount lights reflect the clean, functional design language that characterised late-modernist interiors across former Czechoslovakia. Their pared-back form and honest materials give them a quiet confidence, making them especially well suited to contemporary spaces that value subtle retro character over ornament. Compact in scale, measuring approximately 100 mm in diameter, these minimalist ceiling lights sit neatly against the ceiling, blending seamlessly into both modern and period interiors. Their simplicity allows the quality of materials and proportions to take precedence, while their provenance adds an authentic layer of Eastern European design history. Professionally rewired with new CE-certified components, with UL-listed options available for the USA. Reclaimed, restored, and ready for installation.
