Our 6 wall lamps designed by eckart muthesius in 1930 for the palace of indore come from the re-edition of tecnolumen in manufactory production and small series from the 1980s. The lights are all signed and numbered, numbering around 200-400. Probably only 500 pieces were made. The production is extremely precise and dimensionally the same as the original design from 1930. Installing the led rods drastically reduces energy consumption.

eckart muthesius designed these highly decorative wall lights for the new construction of the palace for the maharaja of indore in india. The young architect found a friend and patron in the maharajah of indore. At that time, the lights were only built for the palace in small production in berlin. In the publication by reto niggl "eckart muthesius 1930. The palace of the maharajas in indore", the lights are shown with a construction drawing equipped with led lamps, they also meet today's energy consumption requirements.
