Hans Bergström for Ateljé Lyktan Chandelier in Brass

About the Item

Hans Bergström for Ateljé Lyktan, chandelier, brass, Sweden, 1950s This chandelier showcases an elegant design, featuring four cone-shaped shades seamlessly fixed to a geometric frame defined by graceful curves. Its body is beautifully suspended, and the thoughtful spatial arrangement of the pendants ensures a harmonious and even distribution of light. This piece exemplifies the designers' exceptional eye for graceful silhouettes and thoughtful design with practicality in mind. Hans Bergström (1910-1996), a luminary figure hailing from the realm of Swedish architecture and design, was born on November 4, 1910, in Karlshamn, Sweden. After his completion of secondary school in 1927, Hans embarked on an internship at Ystad Metall, a local craft industry situated near his grandfather's farm. In 1929, he sought further education and enrolled at the esteemed School of Art and Design in Stockholm. Remarkably, even before his graduation from this institution, at the age of twenty, Hans showcased his prowess as a designer for Ystad Metall at the prestigious Stockholm Exhibition in 1930. In the 1920s, Hans encountered his future wife Verna during the summer holidays in his native town of Karlshamn. In 1934, the couple jointly established the company ateljé Lyktan, a venture that combined their collaborative efforts in luminaire design and various artistic pursuits. Bergström undertook various commissions spanning a wide range of architectural environments, including churches, private residences, and public buildings. It was from this point forward that Bergström spearheaded a revolution in Swedish luminaire manufacturing, fundamentally transforming the perception and application of electric lighting in the coming decades. For a span of three decades, Bergström held the position of creative director at ateljé Lyktan and served as the sole designer of the company until the early 1960s. A significant portion of his designs were unique pieces, numbered but lacking specific names. Through his pioneering work, Bergström emerged as a leading figure in the realm of modern Swedish lighting fixtures. On June 14, 1996, Hans Bergström passed away at the age of 86, leaving behind a remarkable legacy. Please note that this item is in good, used condition. One lamp shade shows more patina compared to the other three shades. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
