Bauhaus Porcelain Base and Glass Globe Wall/Ceiling Light, Germany, 1930s
This original Bauhaus wall or ceiling light from 1930s Germany is a superb example of early modernist design, showcasing simplicity, functionality, and high-quality materials. With its clean geometric form and purposeful construction, this fixture embodies the Bauhaus philosophy, where aesthetics and utility coexist harmoniously.
The piece features a durable white porcelain base known for its heat resistance and minimalist charm. Its timeless, utilitarian shape allows the intricately patterned globe to take center stage while remaining sturdy and versatile. This fixture can be mounted on walls and ceilings, making it adaptable to various interior settings.
The pressed glass globe showcases a distinctive ribbed and cross-hatched texture, beautifying light and enhancing the ambient glow. When illuminated, the world casts a soft, warm radiance while highlighting the elegant symmetry of the glass pattern. The subtle interplay of light and texture adds visual interest without unnecessary ornamentation, staying true to the Bauhaus aesthetic.

These lights are perfect for residential and commercial projects, working beautifully in hallways, bathrooms, kitchens, stairwells, or minimalist living spaces.
