Description
Pendant lamp goutte by östen kristiansson for luxus 1960. The designer brothers uno & östen kristiansson are known for their lighting fixtures and mirrors and were particularly active from 1950 to 1970 in sweden. They were prolific designers with a clear design aesthetic, easily identifiable as "modern scandinavian". Although there is little biographical information about the duo, their works are highly regarded by vintage enthusiasts and highly sought after in the vintage market today. Uno kristiansson was born in 1925 and östen two years after him in 1927. Little is known about their training, but it is assumed that they spent their early years in southern sweden. It was probably their father, who ran his own furniture company (vittsjö furniture, launched in 1919, after the name of the swedish village where it was located) who taught them the business. In 1950, uno kristiansson founded his own factory, luxus, also located in vittsjö. He produced indoor and outdoor lamps, furniture and mirrors, designed by the two brothers. Their collections were launched in sweden and across europe in 1950. In 1968, luxus presented a collection of lamps with brightly colored lampshades that perfectly captured the spirit of the 1960s. They are said to have been designed by renowned finnish textile artist marjatta metsovaara (1927-2014). Height: 49cm. Diameter: 10cm.
