About the Item

A large and fantastic six-arm pendant chandelier made of brass and cream colored pleated fabric shades, manufactured in Austria in 1930s. The organically curved arms are decorated with cut glass pieces. The brass parts have lovely patina and a warm aged hue. The light has the original ceramic sockets. Cords and wires are renewed and it is ready to use. The height of the body without chain is 15.7 inch (40 cm). The current overall drop is 43 inch (110 cm) and can be customized to any length for free of charge. It has six sockets for medium or standard Edison screw base bulbs. It is possible to install this fixture in all countries (US, UK, Europe, Asia, Canada,) although it may be necessary to purchase different light bulbs (e.g. LED or filament) suitable to local electricity. The lamp is an example of outstanding Austrian design from this period and high-quality craftsmanship with attention to detail. In the mid-1920s, Josef Frank and Oskar Wlach founded "Haus Garten" which was sold to Julius Theodor Kalmar after Josef Frank emigrated to Sweden before the second world war. Founded in Vienna by Julius August Kalmar in 1881, Kalmar first specialized in the production of handcrafted objects of cast bronze. After the turn of the century, Julius Theodor Kalmar, son of the original founder, studied under the renowned Austrian architect and designer Josef Hoffmann. In the following years the company realized modern lighting concepts and designs. Kalmar worked together with the Austrian Werkbund and the most important Austrian architects like Josef Frank, Oskar Wlach, Oswald Haerdtl, Clemens Holzmeister, Ernst Plischke, and Oskar Strnad. Kalmar used traditional materials like glass, bronze, brass, and wood. His designs, including this chandelier, lacked ornament but favoured instead a purist aesthetics. Kalmar produced lightings of great craftsmanship, high quality workmanship, and timeliess design. Mid-Century Modern, Art Deco
