LIGHTING
Woka Lamps
WOKA LAMPS VIENNA is a Vienna-based
Manufacturer of Iconic 20th Century Lighting
Design. Lovers of iconic lamps from the early
20th century were for decades deprived of
the possibility of owning some of the most
striking pieces by the Wiener Werkstätte
and the Bauhaus, which had long fallen out
of production. The designers whose work
WOKA is licensed to produce read like a
who’s who of the Vienna design pantheon. In
addition to Hoffmann and Koloman Moser,
the manufacturer has reissued striking
table, ceiling, wall and floor lamps, as well as
chandelier pieces, by the likes of Adolf Loos,
Otto Wagner and Carl Witzmann.
A collection of very rare antiques of the early
20th century as well as a large collection of
chandeliers from the 18th century until the
1960s is completing the business of the WOKA
GALLERy. On request all antiques and pieces
of arts are delivered with an expertise made out
by a certified appraiser for art and antiques on
the commercial court in Vienna.
Due to WOKA’s extraordinary achievement, in
2016 the minister for economic affairs and Vice
Chancellor of the Austrian Republic Reinhold
Mitterlehner, has awarded WOKA LAMPS
VIENNA with the right to use the Austrian Coat
of Arms in matters of business.
