Hijos de Estévez produced the luminaries of the Cathedral of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Under the technical direction of the architect Mr. Salvador Fábregas Gil, who did the restoration of the Cathedral of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, he entrusted the production of the lamps to the crafts workshop of Hijos de Estévez.
Following the architect’s sketches, which collect the forms of the columns and vaults of the Cathedral’s unique architecture, the artisans made a first lantern, which obtained the total acceptance of the architect, allowing us to continue with the rest of the lanterns.
The metal structure is entirely made of tinned brass, using brass during the whole process as a precaution against damages due to corrosion, due to the zone’s special climatology.
