Large Rupert Nikoll 27“ MidCentury Basket Brass Leaves Chandelier, Austria, 1950

Creator: Rupert Nikoll
Offered by: supersuite.plus

Description
A beautiful and large Austrian modernist brass chandelier, designed and manufactured by Rupert Nikoll, Vienna, Austria, in the 1950s. This impressive piece, with its 27-inch diameter, features elegantly curved white acrylic leaves arranged in a circular pattern around the fixture. Between the leaves are gracefully arched brass rods, each topped with a faceted round crystal ball. A round acrylic diffuser disc is mounted at the bottom and secured with a decorative large brass knob. The chandelier offers seven light sources, creating a beautifully soft and pleasant illumination. It remains in very good vintage condition, showing only minor patina on the brass.

Technical Details: The chandelier features seven light sources — six on the upper section providing an ambient uplight, and one below the diffuser, which is originally equipped with a circular fluorescent tube. This has been replaced with a modern LED ring light that emits a warm, inviting glow (3000K) . All bulbs are standard and easily available. The upper and lower sections can also be switched separately, provided that a suitable light switch is installed on the wall. Currently, the fixture is wired for European standards (E27). We are pleased to offer rewiring for your regional standard (e.g. E26 for the US) free of charge, and will include the matching LED tube with your order. The current overall drop height is 22 inches, and we are happy to adjust the suspension length — longer or shorter — at no additional cost.

Measurements: Diameter: 27 in (68.5 cm), Overall Height: 22 in (56 cm), chandelier height without rod: approx. 10 in (25.5 cm)
