In today’s marketplace there is an abundance of possibilities
to find the right lighting fixtures for a building project, inside and outside
a home, for a business or a community landscape. As a leader for European vintage
design & artisanship, Dahlhaus Lighting can provide accurate top-quality
products for every situation.
Lighting fixtures from Dahlhaus Lighting are different than many products available.
In fact, there are even different from many look-a-likes or other so-called
traditional products.
What demonstrates this difference? Why are Dahlhaus products unique?
Four main reasons indicate this uniqueness:
1. Original Vintage Design
2. Highest Quality Materials
3. Authentic Craftsmanship
4. Customization Options
1. Original Vintage Design
In the 19th and 20th century many European cities used to have their own
lighting manufacturing facilities. When they decided to outsource the production
40-50 years ago, many of them turned to Dahlhaus Lighting.
Since its foundation Dahlhaus had assembled a great collection
of vintage designs from cities and estates all over Europe. Owning exclusive
rights
to traditional designs, Dahlhaus is the natural choice, if one wants
the “real
deal”.
Today Dahlhaus provides many cities with new outdoor lighting fixtures
and replacement parts. The company is proud, to be a part of preserving
lighting
history.
2. The very best quality – guaranteed!
Dahlhaus Lighting products are of the finest available quality. 90% of the
products are hand-made from solid Sand-Cast Aluminum. This method of casting
is the original and historic way. The molds are pressed in special sand
which is then filled with liquid aluminum. This process guarantees an authentic
look and feel of the product. Through this method Dahlhaus is able to achieve
a 'slightly imperfect' product surface which gives the lanterns, mailboxes
and other products their historic look.
Because of the traditional manufacturing, Dahlhaus products are of substantial
weight. They feel solid and heavy and are “made for eternity” – a
promise, which is backed up by Dahlhaus’ special lifetime
warranty.
Dahlhaus also uses other special techniques during the manufacturing
process which are proof of the outstanding quality, such as:
• permanently elastic glass sealant
• multiple paint coatings
• hand applied patina
3. Authentic Craftsmanship
Preserving historic artisanship is one of Dahlhaus main goals. During the
manufacturing of products, the craftspeople are using historic tools and
authentic procedures whenever possible.
Historically products were made to last – Dahlhaus products are manufactured
traditionally – they do not rust and are extremely durable. The
additional advantage is that the products will retain and often increase
in value over
time! Thus they are truly "Instant Antiques".
4. Customization Options
Dahlhaus is proud to offer a large variety of customization
options. Since the manufacturing process and the casting of most of the
products is
traditional hand-work, Dahlhaus is able to satisfy most of the customer
wishes – may
it be color options (“different patina”), new designs (“mixed
and matched” from original parts) or other wishes.
and of course…
Dahlhaus delivers personalized service: Dahlhaus Lighting takes special pride
in providing exceptional customer support. A selected crew of professionals
is always available to provide assistance every step of the way.
