Pair metal lights produced by the Raak lighting company in the 1960ies. The fixtures are made out of black metal tubes and chrome metal swinging arm suspension. The arm can move to the left and right, the shade can be turned forward or hang vertical. One brass E27 bulbholder is hidden inside the tube. The modest size and the black and chrome color scheme makes this a perfect set of lights in any mix and match interior. Pictured in the Goed Wonen catalogue of the 1960s.

Fixtures are suitable for modern LED bulbs. Very good and complete condition, incl the wall parts. No dents, minor differences between the two lights ( pictures ) but sizes are the same. All electrical parts have been checked through the whole fixture. Sizes ( Tube ) 19,5 X 8,5. From wall incl tube; 50 CM. Great opportunity to purchase as a pair.
