Founded in 1747, Palme Chandeliers is one of the oldest chandelier manufacturing company in the world. Originally based in North Bohemia, the center of the art of glass industry, the company worked to commissions for the royal courts. By the turn of the 20th century requests came in from other prestigious building and hotels. In 1945, the Chandelier factory was nationalized by the Government of Czechoslovakia, and consequently, the German owner and his workers immigrated to Germany where the company is based today.
