F & C Osler was founded in Birmingham in 1812 to manufacture drops for chandelier designers. By 1843, after much success, they opened a branch in Calcutta to supply the Indian Raj. Osler designed the crystal fountain at the Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace in 1851 and became the largest chandelier maker in Britain during the late 19th century. The quality and detail of Osler's glass was exceptional because everything was produced 'in house'. Osler chandeliers, like the glass furniture which they also made, are superbly engineered, with every piece numbered and fitting smoothly in its appointed place.
