Lamp shade diameter: 16,5 cm (6.5 in) Designed and made by Franta Anyz, Czech carver, designer and manufacturer of metal art objects (including jewelry and lighting fixtures). from 1892 to 1899 he studied at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. He is best known for his iconic chrome plated steel table lamps. Made by Napako. The NAPAKO production cooperative was founded in 1919 as a special-purpose association of small private companies dealing primarily with construction metal production. The nature of the production activity was enshrined in NAPAKO's own word logo - toolmakers-passers-metal stampers. with this grouping, the founders of the cooperative pooled funds to overcome the crises caused by irregularities in contracts and, in some fields, also by the seasonal nature of production. Individual establishments and companies, mostly with a small number of employees, were scattered throughout Prague. After the war and subsequently after 1948, the cooperative was partially nationalized and the then economic model was applied. Thanks to a qualified and skilled craftsmanship and employee base, the quality and content of production at that time is high. In the second half of the last century, the cooperative built extensive production facilities at today's address in Prague - Michle, where the company is still headquartered.
