Christian Dell began his career in silver forging in 1911 at the Saxon college of arts and crafts in Weimar.


From 1922 to 1925 he worked as a foreman of the metal workshop at the Bauhaus in Weimar where he was the man behind a highly innovative and pioneering style of design. By 1926 Christian Dell was sketching lamps, usually for the lamp factory Gebr. Kaiser & Co in Neheim Hüsten.


The term “idell” is a reference to the word idea and his lastname, Dell. “Kaiser” is a reference to the original manufacturer – KAISER idell.


This model can be seen in the set of 'Gangs of London' and the lamps are still made today.


The base diameter is 19.5cm and the shade diameter is 29cm.
