History

LUCIS, a Czech lighting producer, was established in Brno in 1999. The main stimulus for establishing the company was the desire to start making quality products of Czech origin maintaining the Czech glassmaking tradition to which the founders are closely related. The company was named very aptly and its name reflects the company’s activity. The word LUCIS comes from Latin word lux, which means light, luminous.
