Colourful, cheeky, skilfully made and original. Art Deco Trade's Coloured by Art© Tuschinski lamps are now well known and famous. It started in 2017 with an eccentric table lamp in the shape of a cube. The collection has since expanded to include chandeliers, ceiling lamps, a wall lamp and pendant lamps.
Koninklijk Theater Tuschinski (also known as Pathé Tuschinski) is a six-screen cinema located on Reguliersbreestraat in Amsterdam. The cinema is world-famous and even named the most beautiful cinema in the world by Time Out (Magazine distributed worldwide) in 2021!
The theatre was commissioned by Abraham Tuschinski and opened on 28 October 1921. The building was designed by architect Hijman Louis de Jong.
Tuschinski Theatre was built in the Amsterdam School style, a quirky form of Art Deco in which Art Nouveau motifs can also be recognised.
The Amsterdam School is characterised by the use of expressive and fantastic forms, akin to expressionism.
Because of its fascination with the Tuschinki Theatre, Art Deco Trade and its team manufactured beautiful Tiffany lamps to its own design, using the Amsterdam School as inspiration. See our series!
