Kaiser Leuchten Drum Pendant

Vintage German Kaiser Leuchten textured art glass and brass drum pendant light.  Dating from the 1950s, this ceiling pendant consists of 26 alternating tubes suspended from a metal plate - 13 textured art glass, and 13 brass. A round textured art glass plate is suspended beneath the bulbs to provide a lovely glow to the room (and conceal the bulbs). The German company Gebr. Kaiser & Co Leuchten KG was formed in 1895 in Neheim by Hermann Kaiser. Originally a lighting parts manufacturer, the company expanded into the production of lights and lamps in the inter-war period and despite the factory being destroyed in WW2, it was rebuilt and soon became one of the largest producers. Particularly well known for midcentury styles, through collaborations with Christian Dell (Kaiser Idell brand work lights) and Bauhaus, the brand was acquired in the 1970s by Thorn. In excellent original condition , ready to hang.
