The pure and timeless design of this lamp, that was strongly influenced by the Bauhaus-movement, makes it a true classic. These lamps were produced by various East German manufacturers since the 1920s, and were often used in the basements or military barracks. It consists of a porcelain base that includes a porcelain E27 socket, and a hand-blown glass dome. We really fancy the light effect it creates when the lamp is mounted to wall or ceiling.

ORIGIN
This particular straight-based lamp was one of the lamps salvaged from the premises of a former refrigerator manufacturer in East Germany. It was found mounted to the ceiling of a fuel station on the complex.

RESTORATION
All our lights are restored by hand with the greatest care. As unique piece of heritage, we seek to preserve the light’s authentic appearance. The lamp has been completely rewired to current standards, and fully assembled and tested to European Legislation, We hope that it may be preserved for many centuries to come.

DETAILS
The True Oyster can be supplied with either a halogen or LED bulb. Standard the light comes with 2.0m long cable, and black canopy. Other lengths for cable is possible on request, please specify in comments at check out. The True Oyster will be accompanied by its passport, documenting the history and origin of the lamp. 110 volt options, US & Canada wiring, and other specialties are available.

Meet the Creator
Wescover creator since 2018
Blom & Blom is about two brothers who share a passion for unique items. Epic in their origin and design, and each with its own story to tell. Items often overlooked but always with a hidden potential, calling out to be discovered and appreciated. Items so special that they deserve a new life.

We craft lighting fixtures inspired by our fascination with industrial artifacts. Our Heritage Collection offers a selection of distinctive lamps recovered from abandoned factories, and carefully restored with respect for their past. Each comes with a ‘passport’, sharing its own unique history.

Under the name ‘Blom & Blom Editions’, we also present our own creations. With this singular collection, we transform ‘ordinary’ industrial objects into phenomenal design. By taking them beyond their original purpose and into a new dimension, we aim to reveal the essence and purity of the object itself.

All of our pieces are handcrafted in Amsterdam by a team of craftsmen, designers and engineers. We also develop bespoke lighting concepts for architects and interior designers, and enjoy seeing our work come to life in interiors around the world.
