Several Flush Mount Lights, Patinated Brass Clear Glass, Rupert Nikoll, 1960s
About the Item
Several rare and exceptional flush mount lights by Rupert Nikoll, Vienna, manufactured in midcentury, circa 1960 (late 1950s or early 1960s).
The textured glass is similar to the lights of Kalmar or Limburg from that time period.
The lamp are made of a seamless brass belt with holes of varying sizes. The hot and molten glass was hand blown through the belt. The brass got a unique and wonderful patina because of the high temperature of the melted glass during the manufacturing process.
Therefore each light is a one of a kind piece.
The price is per light. They are sold individually, as pair or as set of 3, 4 or 5 lights.
Shipping cost depends on number of ordered items.

Rupert Nikoll
The Rupert Nikoll lighting company’s biggest claim to glory came from producing work by the skilled Austrian jeweler and lighting designer Emil Stejnar. He designed several lighting and mirror pieces for the Austrian company. Stejnar had a penchant for symmetrical, rounded forms, often emulating starbursts or floral blossoms in his designs.
Very little information is recorded about the Rupert Nikoll lighting company or its namesake. The company was established in Vienna, Austria, in 1908, and later opened a branch in Munich, Germany. In 1966, its Vienna factory was relocated to Ober-Grafendorf, Austria, about 40 miles away. The company went out of business in 1986, closing the doors of all of its factories.
Decades later, Rupert Nikoll chandeliers and floor lamps still stand the test of time. One of Rupert Nikoll’s most famous designs is the Sputnik pendant lamp, created in the 1960s by Stejnar. With several lighted spokes extending out in every direction, forming a shape similar to a dandelion puff, the Sputnik pendant lamp earned the nickname “Pusteblume,” or “Dandelion” in English. Many imitators have replicated the Sputnik design, but the originals are highly valued by collectors and interior designers. The company is also celebrated for its Sumatra floor lamp, crafted from brass and featuring a curved spine and bipodal base.
