In manufacturing and purchasing the components for our lights, we follow the same guiding principles that also apply to our light switches. We focus on a materiality that simultaneously ensures durability, functional reliability and visual appeal – in this case, of our lights. This is true not only for the visible parts, but for the technical inner workings: sockets made of porcelain, Bakelite® or steatite (rarely of brass-plated steel), the best fabric cables available (from the Vogtland region) and solid, reliable switching mechanisms. We manufacture many of the parts on our own tools. Should there be a need for repair or spare parts despite the longevity of our products, again our principle “Things made to last” holds: We repair and keep spare parts in stock for the future.
