Large round chandelier for 12 dome candles or tealights designed by Bertil Vallien. The chandelier is part of a series of products with the same theme, HELICON.
Designer Bertil Vallien has created a chandelier that literally radiates with vitality, through the exciting combination of cold-hammered steel and the light-reflecting glass medallions.
When you take a closer look at the crown, with its soaring leaves and fanciful figures, you can't help but be impressed by the craftsmanship.
The handmade glass is produced by molding the hot, viscous glass mass using manual methods, the result being a combination of the designer's vision and the craftsman's touch. This method always produces different, individual results. All glasses are thus unique individuals.
2 links 707 for suspension are included as standard.
If the ceiling is high, there may be a need for one or more extra links.
Hand-forged chandelier with 12 arms for 12 candles.
Clear glass in 2 different sizes hangs from each arm. Under the larger glasses hang individually designed glass medallions, 3 with a print of a fish, 3 with a print of a face.
Under the smaller glasses hang medallions designed as a drop, 3 with a print of a face and 3 completely clear. In addition to the forged construction itself, the middle and upper part consists of 3 glass details.
The product is designed by Erik Höglund in the early 60s. It includes 2 links 707 for suspension as standard.
If the ceiling is high, there may be a need for one or more extra links.

When 12 lights are better than 8 lights - locations and why
-Long dining room tables in banquet halls - more lights provide even illumination over the entire length of the table.
-Hotel lobbies with high ceilings - extra light creates both warmth and visual weight.
-Churches and chapels - more lights enhance solemnity and illuminate large areas.
-Castle dining rooms - the proportions require a larger light source to feel harmonious.
-Theater foyers - 12 lights give a grand entrance and enhance the festive feeling.
-Event halls - extra light makes decorations and table settings stand out more clearly.
-Libraries or salons in older buildings - more lights add both function and a historic feel.
-Restaurants with large open spaces - 12 lights provide both atmosphere and practical light for more tables.
There are now many LED lights that are designed to mimic candlelight and work well in chandeliers, especially if you want to increase safety and avoid open flames.
