New Matthews Ceiling Fans for 2008

matthews fan company logoMatthews Fan Company has been creating unique hand made ceiling fans since 1992.  More can be read on the Matthews Fan Company in my previous post Matthews Fan Company is Made in America.  Now in late 2007 they have introduced two new hand crafted ceiling fan models and one new wall fan model.  These ceiling fan models take on a modernized retro feel while producing higher air circulation than the traditional paddle style ceiling fan.

Matthews Fan Company is Made in America

Duplo-Dinamico FanMatthews Fan Company is the home to the original dual motor ceiling fans.  The Duplo-Dinamico was the first model that owner Chuck Matthews started assembling in his Chicago, IL apartment building root cellar years back.  The Duplo-Dinamico fan design came from the San Palo, Brazil based company Gerbar Limited founded in 1963.  This design helped the Matthews Fan Company develop many other unique contemporary ceiling fans.



What & Where are the Matthews Fans Made Of?

The Matthews Fan Company out of Liberty, IL is the only high end ceiling fan manufacture that uses american made motors in all of their ceiling fan models.  Matthews Fan Company buys motors from Mcmillan Electric Company located in Woodville, Wisconsin.  Mcmillan manufactures over 10,000,000 electric motors a year selling to North American Clients since 1976.  The frames and heavy duty stamped steel housings are manufactured in San Palo, Brazil at Gerbar Limited and the solid mahogany wood blades are Ecologically Harvested in Rondonia, Brazil.  These parts along with the motors are shipped to the Matthews Fan factory where each ceiling fan model is hand assembled.

Does Matthews Fan Co Make More Fans than Just The Duplo-Dinamico?

  • Vent-Bettina 42" Dual Rotational Ceiling Fan Vent Bettina Fan
  • Brisa 2000 40" Single Rotational Ceiling Fan
  • Ar Ruthiane 48" Dual Rotational Ceiling Fan

Can you put a Light Source on a Matthews Fan?

Yes.  Tech Lighting a contemporary lighting company that specializes in Murano hand blown glass pendants and low voltage track systems developed a canopy that can be installed on some Matthews Fans.  The Free Jack Venus Canopy mounts to the Duplo-Dinamico ceiling fan or the Vent Bettina ceiling fan allowing you to use any of the Tech Lighting Free Jack Pendants.  This combination makes for a great contemporary look.
