A refined example of high-quality German modernist lighting, the design reflects Schulz’s mastery of proportion, engineering, and material expression. The lamp is crafted entirely in solid brass, featuring a beautifully spun, dish-shaped shade with a warm brushed finish that subtly diffuses light while creating a striking visual presence. The pendant is suspended by a sophisticated counterbalance system with black cords and a matching brass weight, allowing the height and position of the shade to be adjusted with ease. This functional mechanism adds a sculptural, almost kinetic quality to the design. Clean lines, precise detailing, and the contrast between brass and black elements give the lamp a timeless and architectural character. The Onos 55 works equally well as a statement piece above a dining table, workspace, or in a minimalist interior where form and function are equally valued. The lamp remains in very good condition, with minor signs of age that enhance its authentic character. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
