Kalmar Werkstätten

Kalmar Werkstätten celebrates the historic lighting manufacture Kalmar. The lamps, chandeliers, and sconces of Kalmar are accomplished works of the secession and Wiener Werkstätten that resulted from the intimate working relationships between second-generation company owner Julius Theodor Kalmar and great talents including Josef Hoffmann and Adolf Loos. They exemplify Austrian modernism’s directness of form, honest expression of industry and craftsmanship, and dedication to time-honored materials.

Today Kalmar, collaborates with a choice group of emerging and established talent, Kalmar Werkstätten is releasing light fixtures from the Kalmar archive that are adapted for today’s residential and commercial interiors.

Kalmar lighting since 1881

For 130 years architects and design professionals have sought Kalmar to produce bespoke lighting. Thanks to namesake Julius August Kalmar’s values of design and fabrication excellence, almost immediately after the company’s 1881 launch it presented celebrated custom cast-bronze works at Gewerbe Ausstellung Wien, in 1888, and the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893.

Julius Thedor Kalmar took the business in a new direction.A student at the Vienna school of applied arts under Josef Hoffmann, the founder’s son introduced Kalmar to the most progressive movements in decorative arts. By 1925 he was selling designs in Josef Frank and Oskar Wlach’s influential avant-garde furnishings shop Haus und Garten. Six years later, Kalmar was making luminaires based solely on Austrian Werkbund schemes.

As an advocate of burgeoning modernism and an exemplar of collaboration and quality, Kalmar played a significant role in this era of design. The company realized lighting concepts for Werkbund members like like Frank and Wlach, Clemens Holzmeister, Oswald Haerdtl, Ernst Plischke, and Oskar Strnad. Installations in its Stock Exchange, Opera, and Burgtheater made Kalmar synonymous with a new Viennese aesthetic, generally a marriage of industry and handcraft that was stripped of ornament, reverent toward materials, and honest about construction.

Moving beyond a view of its lighting as humble fixtures intended as background, in the 1960’s Kalmar began producing decorative glass objects of many scales, which increased demand for the company’s products exponentially. In the 1990’s, fourth-generation owner Thomas Calice ceased production of stock inventory, returning Kalmar to its bespoke roots.

Through Calice’s leadership Kalmar’s renown continues to expand. In this period it has installed myriad chandeliers and other custom luminaires, in a variety of meticulously executed styles, in international landmarks that include the presidential palace of the Kremlin, RMS Queen Mary 2, and Burj Khalifa, as well as Ritz-Carlton, W Hotels, Hilton, Shangri-La, and Sheraton properties spanning three continents.

Billy BL Floor Lamp

Billy proves that utilitarian design—the honest construction of simple materials—can both reflect an industrial heritage and perfectly accent a domestic environment. The floor lamp comprises three matt-lacquer metal pieces projecting from a hardwood stem, which is unstained but finished in a clear protective coating.

Dreistelz Floor Lamp

J.T. Kalmar conceived Dreistelz as the freestanding counterpart to his line of suspended luminaires: Slim tubing rests atop an organic tripod of legs, and it is fitted with a slightly oversize natural-silk shade. Confident in Dreistelz’s chameleon-like ability to comple-ment and elevate any modern living environment, Kalmar finished the floor lamp only in polished nickel. It also features the proprietary black cord that identifies the Kalmar Werkstätten brand.

Dornstab | Dornstab 18

This freestanding luminaire from 1947 exemplifies Wiener Werkbund criteria. By thread-ing the saber-shaped stand through the lamp shade, designers J.T. Kalmar and A. Pöll melded form as well as function—the stand allows the lamp shade to be positioned at three different, reader-friendly heights. The hardwood stand and handle may be finished in a satin matt red or black lacquer, or left in a natural state with a protective oil or wax coating. The base reflects the lightness of the floor lamp as a whole; all metal parts can be finished in black bronze, polished nickel, or matt black lacquer.

Hase BL Floor Lamp

J.T. Kalmar created Hase by bending simple tubular metal and finishing it in polished brass. The table lamp assumes a more anthropomorphic quality than the floor model from which it is derived. In both cases, the naturally colored electrical cord blends in with Hase’s canted lines. A leather grip permits easy repositioning across a desk or side table, where Hase provides directional and ambient light.

Kilo BL Floor Lamp

Kilo derives its name from the milled cylinder that comprises its highly stable base. Yet the character of the design owes entirely to its asymmetrical pairing of that pure mass to a large shade. In combining the blackened, solid-steel base with a crown of natural silk, designer J.T. Kalmar effected playfulness and elegance in a freestanding luminaire. Its slender shaft and metal details may be finished in a polished nickel or brass.

Hase TL Table Lamp

The freestanding luminaire Hase is another exemplar of the Wiener Werkbund. Using simple metal tubing and the basic bending process, J.T. Kalmar designed a luminaire with a kinetic yet delicate posture. Hase is finished in a polished brass that is uninter-rupted by the untreated electrical cord, and it is partly wrapped in a tactile leather grip that serves as an organic foil to the lamp’s precise fabrication.

Kilo TL Table Lamp

Kilo comprises a milled cylinder of blackened solid steel and a natural silk shade, linked by a slender tube finished in polished nickel or brass. The pairing of small base and large shade seems to defy rules of balance, yet, standing 55.5 centimeters high, the table lamp is a counterpoint to the delightful precariousness of the floor-lamp design. Its appearance of greater stability makes this luminaire suitable for console tables and other delicate surfaces, particularly in areas that would benefit from ambient illumination.

J.T. Kalmar designed the chandelier Holzstern Pendant in the 1930s as an adaptation of the Admont. The result is a scaled-up luminaire tailored for larger rooms, or for lighting square or round tables whose diameter measures as much as 2.4 meters. The branch-like frame, which is fabricated in rosewood, oak, or wenge, suspends from a solid milled ceiling panel on four cords. All metal parts are made of black bronze with highlighted edges, or finished in matt black lacquer.

Designed more than two decades after the launch of the Admont and Holzstern lumi-naires, the chandelier Hallstatt is a speciifc adaptation of those predecessors to entrance areas and small lobbies. In addition to providing consumers with a 1.82 meter diameter light fixture, J.T. Kalmar used Hallstatt as an opportunity to reinterpret armature design as a stable latticework made of rosewood, wenge, or oak finished in a wax coating or red or black matt lacquer.
