1 Tier 19th Century Electric Model Dutch Brass Chandelier with 9 Lights H65xW100

Showcasing ornate 19th century style, the single-tier Brink 1953.09 chandelier illuminates spaces with nine gracefully arched brass arms. At 65cm high and 100cm wide, this commanding antique fixture features delicate scrolled metalwork bordering the expansive circular frame. Originally designed during Holland’s era of lavish ornamentation, this hollow brass chandelier is modernly wired for today’s settings. With its hand-crafted details and decadent glow, the imposing Brink 1953.09 blends old world presence with contemporary functionality. The chandelier exhibits the creative mastery of classic Dutch lighting design.

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.
