About the Item

Bring the fireball into your home, bring a lamp into your home that shines like a sun on the horizon of the sea, in a strong sun red that will envelop your home in a beautiful light. The lamp dates from the early 1960s and was owned by a German Harley Davidson rider who knew how to live. The lamp is blown from glass into a perfect red sphere, with white glass inside, making this lamp a unique lighting object. As the cable and canopy have suffered over the decades, they have been replaced with an exclusive fabric cable from Gubi. The brass canopy also comes from Gubi, a company known for design and quality. Together they form a perfect marriage. The lamp socket is original and has an E27 thread. The total length of the cable is over 220cm and leaves plenty of design freedom no matter how high your ceiling is.
