Elias Canneman (1933-1970) is the name of a former chief architect of monument conservation. He was entrusted with extensive projects after World War II, including the Belfry of Sluis, Walenburg Castle, Duivenvoorde Castle, the Nieuwe Kerk and the Markiezenhof. Canneman was also particularly committed to the fate of traditional Dutch chandeliers. He gave Brink & van Keulen advice on the yellow casting craft and recommendations for maintenance and restoration.
The majestic three-tier Canneman 170.2 chandelier modernises antique opulence with 18 gracefully curved brass arms. At 150 cm high and 125 cm wide, this imposing fixture is a 17th-century Dutch original, right down to the intricately hand-detailed metalwork swirling across the solid brass frame. Although designed centuries ago, the Canneman 170.2 is wired for contemporary use, immersing modern spaces in decadent old-world lighting. Grand and timelessly beautiful, this striking chandelier combines historic elegance with contemporary functionality.
Description
Original historical moulds from that era are used to make the brass parts. In addition, casting is still done the old-fashioned way in a greasy type of sand called Brussels earth. After the crown is lacquered, the parts are assembled by skilled craftsmen. Electric crowns have curved hollow brass tubes for the arms. The arms and curls are soldered together. While the crowns are being assembled, electrical wiring and lighting components are discreetly inserted.
Brink & van Keulen, a family business founded in 1946, upholds the art of casting by producing brass chandeliers of the highest calibre. Chandeliers by Brink en van Keulen can be found in a number of prestigious churches and monumental buildings in the Netherlands and other parts of the world. Through the transfer of knowledge over many generations, Brink & van Keulen has made an important contribution to the preservation of the Dutch yellow casting craft. The company is the only manufacturer of chandeliers with original casting moulds from the 17th century in the whole of Europe.
