Vintage Brass and crystal pendant light by Carl Fagerlund for Orrefors. Sweden 1960s

Pendant light with 12 large pieces of crystal attached with brass screws on a brass frame. A minimalistic cubic construction with a luxurious touch. High quality build like always from Orrefors glass works. An eye-catching centre piece of a room that spreads soft light in all directions. Good condition but with one break in one of the 12 glass pieces by the bottom attachment as seen in the last image. This damage is well reflected in the price. Standard E27 light bulb socket. Swedish glass and lighting designer Carl Fagerlund was born in 1915 trained at Stockholm A.C.S., qualifying as a design teacher. From 1946 to 1980, he worked as a designer at the venerable Swedish glassworks Orrefors, renowned for its high-quality crystal and art glass. Swedish glassworks Orrefors derives its name from the forested, Småland village where it was founded—a site of artisanal and industrial production since the 18th century. In the 20th century, the name Orrefors would go on to become synonymous with fine Swedish glass.
