About the Item

This Holophane Paris Street light, transformed into a mesmerizing light fixture, is a captivating blend of history and modern design. Originally conceived in the mid 20th century, the Holophane Paris Street light was an iconic lighting solution for urban environments. Its rich history is rooted in the renowned Holophane Company, which pioneered the development of prismatic glass for enhanced light distribution. This transformed street light fixture showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that has made Holophane a household name in the lighting industry. The original Paris Street light, with its elegant construction and distinctive spherical globe shaped glass shade, has been thoughtfully repurposed to create a unique lighting centerpiece. The fixture now features a stunning interplay of vintage charm and contemporary aesthetics. The prismatic glass shade beautifully diffuses light, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. Its durable construction adds a touch of industrial appeal, while the sleek lines and polished finish offer a modern twist. The Holophane Paris Street light turned pendant light fixture represents a seamless fusion of the past and the present, celebrating the legacy of Holophane's innovation while adding a touch of timeless beauty to any space. The hallmark of Holophane luminaries, or lighting fixtures, is the borosilicate glass reflector / refactor. The glass prisms (ribs) provide a combination of up light and down light to illuminate any environment evenly without creating dark spots or glare. Therefore this light is perfect for any application where even lighting is desired. Priced each. Quantity available. Please note, this item is located in one of our NYC locations.
