Pair of ceramic pendant lights in vivid orange glaze, likely produced by Dutch manufacturer Herda. Each shade takes a stepped cylindrical form — a broad lower drum narrows to a smaller neck at the top. A horizontal band of small circular cut-outs runs around the lower drum, allowing light to pass through. The ceramic surface has a notably coarse, gritty texture characteristic of grog-fired clay, in which calcified clay is added to the ceramic body to control shrinkage during drying and firing.Herda, based in the Netherlands, was a prolific Mid-Century lighting producer known for ceramic and enameled metal shades. Grog clay was a practical manufacturing choice for larger ceramic forms, reducing cracking during production. The bold orange glaze reflects the chromatic confidence common in Dutch industrial design of the 1960s, a period when manufacturers embraced saturated color in domestic objects.The pair shows minimal wear consistent with age and use.
