ANVIA: Iconic Dutch Lighting Design Since 1933ANVIA is a historic Dutch lighting brand officially founded in 1933 in Almelo, the Netherlands, with roots tracing back to 1906. Known for its commitment to functional, high-quality design, ANVIA became one of the most important lighting manufacturers in the Netherlands during the mid-20th century.The brand’s golden era came in the 1950s and 1960s through its collaboration with designer Jan J.J.M. Hoogervorst, whose adjustable wall lamps, desk lamps, and counterbalance floor lamps defined Dutch mid-century modern lighting. These designs are celebrated for their clarity, precision, and timeless elegance, balancing technical innovation with everyday usability.After a period of industrial transition and eventual dormancy in the late 20th century, ANVIA was revived in 2015, reissuing original Hoogervorst designs with contemporary manufacturing standards while remaining faithful to their original character.Today, ANVIA stands as a benchmark of classic Dutch lighting, valued by collectors, architects, and design enthusiasts for its authentic mid-century heritage and enduring functional beauty.
