Sistra Megaphos ceiling lamp P4 with yellow glass shade

Founded in the 1920s, the Sistrah brand quickly specialized in innovative lighting technology. Their breakthrough came with lamps that perfectly combined glare-free light with maximum luminosity.

The pendant lamp we offer, designed by German designer Otto Müller in the 1930s and also known internationally as “Megaphos,” is a true highlight of its time. The name “Sistrah” is derived from the advertising slogan “Sie strahlt heller” (It shines brighter) – a promise this lamp undoubtedly fulfills.

The Sistrah P4 pendant light is a prime example of functional design that reflects the spirit influenced by the Bauhaus movement. Its yellow glass creates a warm and inviting atmosphere in any room. The short pendant makes it ideal for spaces with lower ceilings, and the adjustable pendant mechanism allows for precise height adjustment.

A key technical feature of Sistrah lights is the clear, stepped lower glass, fitted with matte rings. These rings provide glare-free light diffusion while generating high light intensity downward. These features make the Sistrah P4 particularly well-suited for lighting dining and kitchen tables, where functional and pleasant lighting is essential.
