19th Century Electric Model Dutch Brass Wall Chandelier with 2 Lights H25xW22

With its delicate two-arm silhouette, the Catherina 234 sconce brings a refined touch to walls with hand-crafted 19th century charm. At just 25cm high and 22cm wide, this striking yet petite solid brass fixture features intricate scrollwork bordering the circular frame. Designed long ago yet modernly wired, the Catherina 234 casts a cozy ambient glow, an ideal accent light alongside the Vermeer collection of electric chandeliers. With its graceful curves, ornate details, and antique finish, this diminutive two-arm sconce embodies the lasting elegance of Dutch metal arts.

Original historical moulds from the era are utilised to create the brass components. Additionally, casting is still done the old-fashioned way in a greasy type of sand called Brussels’ soil. After the crown has been varnished, skilled artisans assemble the components. Electric crowns have bent hollow brass tubes for the arms. The arms and curls are soldered together. While the crowns are being put together, the electrical wiring and lighting components are covertly inserted.

Brink & van Keulen, a family-owned business founded in 1946, upholds the art of casting by producing the highest calibre brass chandeliers. Chandeliers by Brink and van Keulen can be found in a number of prestigious churches and monumental buildings in the Netherlands and other parts of the world. Through the transmission of knowledge through many generations, Brink & van Keulen has substantially aided in the preservation of the Dutch yellow casting craft. The business is the sole manufacturer of chandeliers using original casting moulds from the 17th century in all of Europe.
