About the Item

These minimalist flush mounts were designed and manufactured in Germany in the 1930s during the Bauhaus period. The Bauhaus design philosophy emphasized functional, minimalist aesthetics, often using geometric shapes and materials that aligned with mass production methods of the time. The fixtures feature dome-shaped opaque white milk glass shades, which diffuse light softly, creating an elegant and clean look. The mounting made from Bakelite would have been used for its durability and minimalist aesthetic, in line with the Bauhaus movement's focus on functionality. These flush mounts would be typically found in hallways or living spaces, offering a sleek and modern lighting solution that complements Bauhaus design principles: simplicity, functionality, and material honesty. The lights have been rewired and require one E26/E27 bulb each. All lighting is converted for US usage.
