Large Scandinavian Brass Candle Chandelier by Gusum, Sweden, 1980

About the Item

Large and heavy brass chandelier that makes a bold statement with its substantial scale and presence. Crafted from solid brass in 1980 by designer Bernt Karlsson for Gusum — a Swedish company founded year 1661, dedicated exclusively to fine metalwork. Designed to hold nine candles, it creates a warm, inviting ambiance, whether illuminated or admired as a sculptural piece. Suspended by a 55 cm (21.6 inches) chain, this piece commands attention in any setting—whether anchoring over a kitchen table, defining a living space, or creating a focal point in an open stairwell. Its geometric design bridges classical and contemporary aesthetics, making it equally striking in traditional or modern interiors. The chandelier features inscriptions with the designer's signature, the date "1980," and numbered Model "Nr. 32," confirming its authenticity. In great vintage condition with very minor surface wear.
