Edward F. Caldwell & Co., of New York City, was the premier designer
and manufacturer of electric light fixtures and decorative metalwork
from the late 19th to the mid-20th centuries. Founded in 1895 by
Edward F. Caldwell (1851-1914) and Victor F. von Lossberg (1853-1942),
the firm’s legacy of highly crafted creations includes custom made metal
gates, lanterns, chandeliers, ceiling and wall fixtures, floor and table
lamps, and other decorative objects that can be found today in many
metropolitan area churches, public buildings, offices,
clubs, and residences. A majority of these buildings were
built in the early 20th century, a time of tremendous growth in construction
and when many cities were being electrified for the first time.
