About the Item
Original Holophane Globe Pendant Light, Paris, France, 1960
This original Holophane pendant light, produced in 1960 and formerly used as a street lamp in Paris, France, has been thoughtfully converted into a high-end interior pendant light. Its hallmark is the iconic ribbed borosilicate glass globe—designed for both beauty and function. The prismatic texture diffuses light evenly by combining uplight and downlight, eliminating glare and dark spots while delivering a soft, balanced glow.
Holophane’s advanced lighting technology made these fixtures the standard for uniform illumination in public spaces. Now reimagined for interiors, these pendants bring both architectural character and atmospheric lighting to residential or commercial spaces. Ideal for hotel bars, restaurants, retail spaces, or stylish homes, they offer a unique blend of industrial heritage and modern utility.
Each light is fitted with a high-quality porcelain E27 socket, compatible with LED bulbs and wired to meet international standards including US and UK systems. The lights have been thoroughly cleaned, professionally rewired, and are ready to install.
The globe measures 40 cm (15.8 inches) in diameter, with a total height of approximately 90 cm (35.4 inches). We can customize the rod or cable length and finish to suit your project requirements, at no additional cost. Each pendant is carefully boxed and insured for global shipping to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
