The Stockholm silvermith company C.G. Hallberg always employed fine artists to create new designs. During the 1920s and 1930s Elis Bergh, Hakon Ahlberg, Nils Fougstedt, Edvin Ollers and Sylvia Stave were all in-house artists. Designing in their own distinctive ways, together they developed a refined and sober elegance that typified Hallberg's output during the period. Hallberg was the first to supply an electric chandelier for the Royal Palace in Stockholm.
