Elias Canneman (1933-1970) is the name of a former chief architect of the Dutch National Trust for Historic Buildings. He was trusted with extensive projects after the Second World War, such as the Belfry of Sluis, Walenburg Castle, Duivenvoorde Castle, the New Church and the Markiezenhof. Canneman was also especially sympathetic to the fate of traditional Dutch chandeliers. He provided Brink & van Keulen with advice about the yellow casting craft and recommendations regarding maintenance and restoration. Commanding yet refined, the majestic three-tier Canneman 170.2 chandelier modernizes antique opulence with 18 gracefully arching brass arms. At a dramatic 150cm high and 125cm wide, this imposing fixture emulates an ornate 17th century Dutch original down to the intricate hand-detailed metalwork swirling across its solid brass frame. Though designed centuries ago, the Canneman 170.2 is wired for contemporary use, immersing modern spaces in decadent old world lighting...

Born to a prominent Friesian family in 1612, Saskia Uylenburgh married the acclaimed Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn in 1634. Their loving union inspired some of Rembrandt’s most renowned works, as Saskia often posed as his muse. A steadfast partner, she handled the couple’s finances and in 1635 jointly drafted her will with Rembrandt while pregnant with their first child. Saskia brought grace and wisdom to their relationship, evident in the ethereal beauty Rembrandt captured in portraits of his wife that stand today as 17th century masterpieces, immortalizing her spirit and their bond. Exemplifying 19th century Dutch design, the Saskia 475 sconce illuminates with two gracefully curving brass arms in a refined 31cm high by 28cm wide frame. Intricately embellished with scrolled metalwork bordering the circular brass fixture, this antique wall light...
