Original steel gallery and stem - comes with original ceiling rose - opaline glass top with stepped glass base - takes e27 fitting bulbs - designed by otto muller for sistrah - german ~ 1930s - 40cm wide x 35cm tall sistrah. As the distributor of poul henningsen's ph lighting range in germany, otto muller decided to produce his own version of these highly successful lights. Manufactured under the sistrah trademark it was otto müller, who, in close tandem with the students at the ‘institute of light technology of the technical university of karlsruhe’ developed the lamps. Mullers designs were the teutonic equivalent of the ph lighting system. The idea behind their design was to make the bulb invisable in order to create a dazzle free light. From their inception in 1931 sistrah and muller produced a range of lighting from desk lamps, pendant lamps, medical lamps, billiard lamps and even street lamps. Their clever branding slogan ‘sie strahlt hell’ (she burns brightly)(sistrah), their annual catalogues and the amazing built quality made sistrah the lamp of choice for many business owners. Condition: report fully re-wired with modern electrical components, some patina to the steel surface.
