That singular moment when a master glassmaker lifts the blowpipe – the tool Czechs call a “whistle” – and transforms molten glass into luminous art inspires Brokis Whistle. Designed by Brokis art director Lucie Koldová, this collection is a living reference to centuries of Bohemian glassmaking tradition, celebrating the fundamental tools of the craft through contemporary lighting design.

The lucid body of each Whistle traces the pure silhouette of a cone of light. A distinct spotlight aesthetic emerges through the hand-pressed metal shield positioned within the glass, while a naked textile cable winds its way up through the transparent body – a deliberate visual gesture that transforms functional necessity into defining design element. The simplistic technical form honours the essential nature of glassmaking tools while creating focused, directed illumination.

Whistle features Click&Safe connectors for straightforward installation and maintenance. The collection offers extraordinary material versatility with glass finishes ranging from transparent and smoke grey to smoke brown and opaline, complemented by metal shields in matte black, matte white, grey, copper, brass, and chrome. Available in Small and Medium pendant configurations plus coordinated sets for residential and commercial interiors seeking refined industrial character.

BROKIS lights are available with a variety of mounting options. Surface mounting works in all situations. This also applies to suspended lights up to a roof slope of 30°. For mounting flat, pure and recessed lighting, a suspended ceiling or cavity wall must be available for flush mounting.

For almost all BROKIS lights, a solution can be found with a sideways inlet if the electrical outlet is not in the right place.
