This lamp designed for working in potentially explosive atmospheres was made by VEB Leuchtenbau Leipzig. Originally designed by Kandem (short for Körting & Mathiesen), production was continued when Kandem subsequently became Leuchtenbau Leipzig.
This trio of explosion-proof light fittings have certainly been polished to a very high sheen! These very long pendulum lights built for industrial use were made in the 1930s or 1940s by Kandem, a light-making company based in Leipzig. As well as polishing the lights, we’ve also rewired them.

These lamps were produced as of 1924 in a wide range of different designs and are the embodiment of twentieth-century industrial charm. Their simple, elegant appearance belies their extremely robust design. They were used in power stations, on tank farms and in other buildings containing hazardous materials. Featuring an elaborate splash-proof design, these lamps comprise either die-cast aluminium or cast iron casing fitted with heatproof, pressure-resistant safety glass and a steel protective cage. The E27 ceramic socket inside is spring-mounted to protect the bulb from sharp knocks. To recondition these lamps, the body and cage have been finely sandblasted and re-polished; additionally, the cast iron is chrome-plated. However, we also usually have plenty of unrestored lamps of this type in stock.
