A beautiful piece straight from the roaring twenties of design, this raak b 1228 pendant light, created in amsterdam in 1968, perfectly embodies the space age spirit. Its large, hand-blown glass globe invites contemplation: the countless air bubbles trapped within the glass and the subtle surface texture testify to authentic, warm, and vibrant craftsmanship. The light passing through it creates soft, shifting reflections, reminiscent of the heyday of the mid-century.
this pendant light is vintage, dating from the 1970s. It is in perfect condition. The frame is made of chromed metal and suspended by a black fabric cable. Raak amsterdam, founded in 1959, is one of the leading names in designer lighting from this era.
