REQUEST INFORMATION
Franz and Karl Hagenauer won the gold medal at the 1930 Milan Triennale for their design of a candelabrum named “Baum” (transl. tree).
The design of the carefully welded brass tube with four arms and loosely resting candle holders on a round plinth was virtually trend-setting for its time.
This early design piece was to become one of Hagenauer’s most successful models; the candelabrum was available in brass and nickel-plated brass. The reduced form language and the architectural design attracted a lot of media attention in 1930 and is still a sought-after design classic today.
