Chandeliers for the Restaurants of one of Vienna’s Finest Hotels
As one of the landmark Viennese hotels the Sacher was a very innovative house, stylistic as well as technical. It rivals the Hofburg Palace and the Lord Mayor’s office to be the first building worldwide to be equipped with representative electrical lighting so it was the first private project at least. Ludwig Lobmeyr connected with Thomas A. Edison who was in Vienna during the World Exposition of 1883.
The chandeliers in the Anna Sacher restaurant bear the typical hanging bulbs necessary for early electrical chandeliers. They mark the peak of this so prosperous period for our company in the late 19th century.

Later we provided the chandeliers for the Red Bar, the Marble Hall, and the Blue Bar.
We are also gladly invited from time to time to overlook the chandeliers and clean them carefully to ensure another 100 years of service.
