Matthews Fan Company

Chuck Matthews founded the Matthews Fan company in his home town of Chicago in 1992. Marketing their products under the brand names, "Matthews-Gerbar" and "Atlas," Matthews' goal is to build visually appealing and superbly functioning ceiling and wall fans with identifiable personality.In business since 1992, Matthews’ fans are functional, innovative and suitable for both residential and commercial applications. The Matthews-Gerber fans are individually handmade from either solid, ecologically harvested Brazilian mahogany fan heads without blade guards or metal fan heads with metal blade guards while the Atlas fans are produced in china .These retro style fans are bold alternatives to ordinary paddle-style ceiling fans and are sure to be a conversation piece for your guests!

All fans come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty and are UL listed. Matthews Fan Company is incorporated and based in Libertyville, IL, forty miles north of the city of Chicago.
