Gegossenes Messing · Geschliffene Kristalltropfen · Barocke Akanthus-Verzierungen
Ein traditioneller Kronleuchter aus gegossenem Messing in Louis-XV- und Barocksprache – fließende, geschwungene Arme verziert mit geschnitzten Akanthusblatt-Details, Kerzenhalter auf jedem Arm, und gestufte Kristalltropfen, die von Körper und Rosetten entlang der zentralen Säule herabhängen. Die Krone über der zentralen Stange trägt durchbrochene Kartuschen, die das Blattwerk an den Armen widerspiegeln.
Die Kristalltropfen fangen Licht aus jeder Richtung ein – sowohl von den Kerzenleuchter-Leuchtmitteln oben als auch von natürlichem Licht, das durch den Raum fällt – und brechen es in sanfte prismatische Flimmern über Decke und Wände. Erhältlich in fünf Kopfkonfigurationen, um sich Ihrem Raum anzupassen.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Warum haben die 3-, 4- und 5-flammigen Versionen denselben Durchmesser? +
Die 3-, 4- und 5-flammigen Versionen teilen sich denselben 56 cm großen gegossenen Messingkörper — sie verwenden dasselbe Gestell mit progressiv mehr bestückten Kerzenleuchten. Die 6- und 8-flammigen Versionen greifen auf größere Gestelle von 65 cm bzw. 83 cm zurück, um die zusätzlichen Arme mit angemessenem visuellen Abstand und Balance unterzubringen. Wählen Sie nach der benötigten Lichtstärke (mehr Arme = heller) und danach, wie optisch dicht Sie den Kronleuchter wirken lassen möchten.
Welche Konfiguration passt zu meinem Raum? +
Die 3-flammige Ausführung eignet sich für kompakte Esszimmer, Schlafzimmer oder Eingangshallen unter Standard-Decken von 2,4–2,7 m Höhe. Die 4–5-flammigen Versionen sind vielseitig einsetzbar in typischen Esszimmern und Wohnzimmern. Die 6-flammige (65 cm breit) ist für größere Esszimmer oder formale Wohnzimmer geeignet. Die 8-flammige (83 cm breit) ist ein Statement-Stück — ideal für prachtvolle Eingangshallen, doppelgeschossige Flure oder große formale Esszimmer mit über 3 m Deckenhöhe.
Welches Leuchtmittel passt? +
Jeder Kerzenarm nimmt ein E12 (Nordamerika) oder E14 (EU/UK/AU) Kerzenleuchten-Sockel-Leuchtmittel auf — die kleinere Kronleuchter-Fassung, nicht Standard E26/E27. Bis zu 25 W pro Fassung. Wir empfehlen Warmweiß-LED-Kerzenleuchten-Leuchtmittel (3000 K) in Kerzenform für das authentischste Licht, das die Kristallbrechung optimal unterstreicht. Leuchtmittel nicht enthalten.
Ist der Kristall echt oder gepresst? +
Die Anhänger sind facettierter Kristall — geschliffenes und poliertes Glaskristall, das Licht bricht und einen prismatischen Glanz erzeugt. Dies ist hochwertiger dekorativer Kristall, der zum Preis und zur Verarbeitung der Leuchte passt, kein natürlicher Bergkristall (der erheblich teurer wäre). Das Schliffmuster und die Brechungsqualität sind entscheidend für die optische Wirkung, und diese sind bei dieser Leuchte ausgezeichnet konstruiert.
Wie schwer ist die Leuchte? +
Gegossenes Messing mit Kristallanhängern ist ein beträchtliches Gewicht, besonders bei den 6- und 8-flammigen Versionen. Wir empfehlen, mit einem zugelassenen Elektriker zu klären, ob Ihre Deckenabhängung und Deckenstruktur für die Last ausgelegt sind — eine Standard-Wohnungsabhängung trägt normalerweise bis 50 kg, aber schwerere Leuchten benötigen möglicherweise eine Lüfter- oder verstärkte Abhängung. Kontaktieren Sie uns für das exakte Gewicht, falls dies für Ihren Installateur erforderlich ist.
Ist es dimmbar? +
Die Leuchte selbst ist nicht dimmbar, wird aber vollständig dimmbar, wenn Sie sie mit dimmbaren LED-Kerzenleuchten-Leuchtmitteln und einem Standard-TRIAC-Wanddimmer (beide separat erhältlich) kombinieren. Das Dimmen dieses Kronleuchter-Stils erzeugt eine besonders atmosphärische Wirkung — der Kristall fängt und bricht das Licht auch bei 30–40 % Helligkeit wunderschön.

The metal that holds
the light of years.
Brass is the alloy civilisations reach for when they want light to last. Door pulls polished by three generations. Naval instruments still readable a century after the ship was scrapped. Church candelabra that outlive the parish. Radilum's American Brass Collection is built on that same expectation — fixtures forged from H65 cartridge brass, finished by hand, sealed against time, and meant to be the lamp your grandchildren still recognise.
The alloy that refuses to age.
Brass is a copper-zinc alloy whose first known smelting dates to roughly 500 BCE in the eastern Mediterranean — Greek artisans alloying calamine ore with native copper to produce a metal that struck like gold but bent like a tool. By the Roman imperial period, brass was the material of coinage, military fittings, and the household lamps that lit late-republic Rome. Two and a half millennia later it remains, by an enormous margin, the most-used non-ferrous engineering alloy on the planet — and the lighting industry's quiet workhorse.
What makes brass uniquely fit for lighting is a coincidence of properties no single-element metal achieves. Copper gives it warm chromatic depth and the specific red-yellow that reads as luxurious rather than industrial. Zinc hardens the alloy enough to hold sharp turned profiles, threaded fittings, and cast detail without the softness of pure copper or the dullness of grey castings. The blend produces a metal that is workable when you need it to be — and rigid for the next century.
Of the dozen brass grades available to manufacturers, Radilum specifies H65 cartridge brass — 65% copper, 35% zinc. The name comes from its original use: military shell casings, where the metal had to absorb the shock of firing without splitting. That same toughness, applied to a lamp arm, means the part stays dimensionally stable under decades of thermal cycling, hardware tightening, and bulb replacement. Lower-copper alloys (H62, H59) are cheaper but more brittle. We do not use them.
The Radilum brass collection is built on a simple recognition that the wider lighting industry has spent the last two decades forgetting: that the cost difference between a true brass fixture and a brass-plated zinc one is measurable in years of service, not dollars at checkout.
Four properties that change everything
about how a lamp ages.
Most fixture materials are chosen for what the lamp looks like in the showroom photograph. Brass is one of the very few materials that earns its place over the next thirty years. The differences come down to four physical and aesthetic properties.
01 Mass that reads as quality
Solid H65 brass has a density of 8.5 g/cm³ — denser than steel, denser than cast iron, more than three times the weight of zinc-die-cast. A brass sconce of comparable size to a brass-plated zinc one will weigh nearly four times as much. You feel the difference the moment you lift the box. It's not marketing — it's chemistry.
02 Living finish, not a coating
Brass-plated finishes are paint that happens to be metallic. They scratch, chip, and reveal cheaper alloy underneath. Solid brass is the finish — what you see is the metal itself, polished or patinated. A scratch on plated brass is a flaw; a scratch on solid brass is a wear mark that polishes back out. This is why brass instruments survive a century of touring while plated hardware ages out of fashion in five years.
03 Naturally antimicrobial
Copper alloys are oligodynamic — meaning their surface ions disrupt microbial cell membranes on contact. The EPA registers solid brass and bronze as antimicrobial surfaces. A brass switch plate, lamp pull, or door fitting is meaningfully cleaner than the stainless steel equivalent. For high-touch fixtures (bedside lamps, hallway sconces) this matters more than the brochures usually mention.
04 A spectrum the eye reads as warm
Brass reflects light selectively across the visible spectrum — absorbing slightly more blue and green, reflecting more red and yellow. The result is that any light source mounted in or near a brass fixture acquires a faint warm wash. We design the LED specification with this shift in mind: a 2700K bulb behind brass reads as roughly 2550K to the eye, the colour of late-afternoon window light.
Six finishes. Six different conversations
between metal and room.
A single block of H65 can be finished in a dozen ways — and the finish, more than any other variable, decides the personality of the fixture. The atelier maintains six standard characters and adds custom patinas on request. Physical samples are sent before final order on every project of three fixtures or more.

Order by number, not by name. "Antique brass," "aged brass," "burnished brass" — ask five workshops what those mean and five different metals come back. Finish 04 is the same physical sample in our studio, on the atelier bench, and on your packing list.
And because no screen renders metal honestly, we ship the physical panels before anything is committed. Hold them against your cabinetry and wall paint, at the hour you actually use the room — then send the number.
Color that is grown, not painted on.
A brass finish is not a coat of paint — it is a controlled chemical reaction on the surface of the metal itself. Where a sprayed lacquer sits on top and eventually chips, a true patina is the brass reacting with sulphur, ammonia, or acid salts until its surface ions shift colour. The tone you see is the metal, transformed. That is why a patinated Radilum fixture deepens with age instead of peeling — and why every piece is coloured by hand, one at a time.
Seven stages, ten to twelve weeks,
and nothing exists before you choose.
A Radilum fixture is not pulled from a shelf. It is tooled, cast, polished, patinated and sealed after you order it — which is why the finish can be anything you want, and why the whole thing takes twelve weeks rather than two days.
One project specialist carries the commission from brief to install. There is no handover between sales, design, production and freight; the person who answers your first email is the one who sends you the polishing photographs.
The four stages you will see photographed
Stages three through six happen in the atelier, and each one arrives in your inbox as a timestamped photograph. Not because pictures sell anything — twelve weeks is a long time to trust a workshop on the other side of the world, and a photograph is the only thing that proves what we described actually happened. They come whether or not you ask.
Steel cut from your drawing
The signed-off render becomes a parametric model, then a five-axis tool path, then a steel mould cut in our own shop. Nothing is outsourced here — a tolerance lost at this stage cannot be recovered later.
H65 — the shell-casing alloy
65% copper, 35% zinc: the brass first specified for military cartridges because it absorbs shock without splitting. Every cast piece is annealed so it will not crack a decade from now.
Colour is grown, not sprayed
One technician carries your fixture through every grit, then the patina bath. The reaction is arrested within seconds of reaching tone, and high points are rubbed back by hand. Their mark is etched on the fitting plate.
Multi-layer sealant, tested for 25 years
Three coats of imported Incralac — the conservation lacquer museums use on bronze sculpture. Accelerated-aging tests project 25+ years tarnish-free — or we skip this stage entirely, by request.
The swatch is the cheapest step in the entire commission and the only one that prevents a remake — the finish is the single variable that cannot be corrected once the fixture is built.
Five archetypes — the working portfolio.
Most projects begin from one of five standard categories. Every category scales from intimate residential to full-room hospitality; every category accepts any of the seventeen finishes; every category ships UL-listed for North America (CE/SAA available on request).
Three principles drawn from two centuries
of American interior design.
The Radilum American Brass Collection is shaped by three lineages — Federal-era neoclassical proportion, the early-20th-century Arts & Crafts movement, and the mid-century industrial vernacular. The result is a portfolio that reads as American not because it is decorated with eagles and stars, but because it carries the same restraint and structural honesty that those three traditions share.
Restraint & Proportion
From Federal-era cabinetry: symmetry, balance, restraint. Arms stepped at golden-ratio intervals. Canopies sized to match the column they descend from. Nothing is decorative for decoration's sake. The grandeur is in the proportion, not the ornament.
Structural Honesty
From the Arts & Crafts vocabulary: function expressed, never disguised. Joinery shows. Fasteners are visible and intentional. The arm of a sconce is shaped because it must support a bulb — and that shape is the design. Nothing pretends to be what it isn't.
Classic Shades
From mid-century industrial: opal milk glass, fluted glass, woven linen, perforated metal mesh. Each shade has a hundred-year vocabulary behind it. We pair the shade to the fixture's intended room — not the photographer's preference for what reads on social media.
Begin with a brief, or a finish sample.
Whether you need a single bedside sconce or a hundred matched fixtures for a hospitality build-out, the first step is the same — write to us. The project specialist who reads your email is the one you'll work with from brief to install. Every email gets a real reply within 24 hours.

Measuring for Pendant Lighting
When installing pendants and chandeliers, it’s important to consider how you want your fixtures to hang in relation to the other furnishings in your space. Read on for our recommendations on how to hang the perfect light.
Kitchen
Aim for 30–36″ from the bottom of your fixture’s shade to the top of your island or countertop. Space multiple pendants 26–30″ apart. For a sense of proportion and balance, allow 12″ from the outermost fixture to the edge of your counter.
Dining Room
For optimal lighting and visibility, the bottom of your pendant should sit 30″ from the surface of your dining table. To scale your fixture, take the length and width of the room in feet, then convert that to inches. For a 10′ by 14′ room, the chandelier should be about 24″ wide.
Bedroom
If you’re hanging a pendant above a nightstand, allow for at least 30″ between the bottom of the shade and your nightstand’s surface. To keep the look balanced, center your pendant over your nightstand.
