pietro chiesa chandelier for Fontana Arte, 1950s Italy

Our entire contemporary collection consists of handmade pieces.

All of the designs and patinas are handcrafted.

Consequently, as with any handmade process, irregularities and variations in shape or surface may occur. These imperfections reflect the nature of the manufacturing process and make each piece unique; they should not be considered defects.

Brass oxidizes naturally over time, so it’s not uncommon to see signs of oxidation; this is simply part of the product’s life cycle.

At Danke Galerie, the patina makes each object unique.
