For the Casino in Baden near Vienna Oswald Haerdtl designed this lovely wall sconce. With this he excels in his own floral style by creating a flower bouquet in brass and crystal.

The metal structure is carefully welded and polished to create the delicate organic branches. These are then decorated with lead-free and hand-polished crystal in a multitude of colours.

The most difficult task with this item apart from making the structure is to affix the crystal in a gravitydefying manner to create the blossoms and leaves.

Designed for the World Exhibition in Paris 1937, this is the most prominent work of Oswald Haerdtl, one of our most important designers. It is the best example of Haerdtl’s play with light floral shapes and heavily cut crystal. Through its slender body it emanates a noble elegance. This is even enhanced by the almost lavishly long candles.

Even among the most elegant works of Oswald Haerdtl this item sticks out with its playful walk between minimalism and decoration. The stern cut bowl gives a strong presence contradicted by the long stem. A cut crystal star at the base and the typical floral element at the crown give the fixture the perfect frame.

The cut bowl bears a sophisticated cut that creates the illusion of a mirror finish breaking all looks back upon themselves. Yet the light can pass unhindered creating the softest of lighting effects.

The grace and loftiness of Haerdtls early works made him to one of the most important designers of his time. His Parisian Chandeliers for the World Exposition in Paris 1937 are among the most beautiful designs ever created.

To one accustomed to Oswald Haerdtl’s long and slender shapes, this cute little chandelier strikes the eye as something special. With this fixture designed for the Hotel Ambassador he brings his floral and playful style into small rooms.

The brass frame is fashioned in the same branched way as other pieces of his design but confined to a little ceiling basket. The surface is finely polished. As crystal Haerdtl used leaf-shaped pieces in alteration with plain crystal beads.

Such he creates a lofty and light fixture which is perfectly fit for bed rooms or dressing rooms with low ceilings.
