Ros – Signed Art Deco Hanging Ceiling Lamp – Frosted Pressed Glass – France – ca. 1930

A genuine French Art Deco ceiling lamp by Ros, dating to circa 1930.

This elegant pressed glass bowl is decorated with stylised berry clusters set against a faceted geometric background. The combination of organic fruit motifs and sharp polygonal structure is highly characteristic of late French Art Deco design during the interwar period.

Executed in moulded glass with a refined satin-frosted finish, the relief decoration is crisp and well-defined. The piece is signed “Ros” in moulded relief within the design.

About Ros

The signature Ros is attributed to a French glass workshop active during the Art Deco period (approximately 1925–1935).

Ros specialised in pressed and moulded decorative glass lighting, producing ceiling bowls and shades that combined geometric modernism with stylised natural motifs — a hallmark of French decorative arts of the 1930s.

While not positioned in the same luxury tier as Degué, Müller Frères, or Sabino, Ros was part of the broader French Art Deco lighting industry supplying high-quality decorative fixtures to private interiors and commercial spaces.

Today, signed Ros pieces are appreciated for their authentic period design, solid craftsmanship, and strong decorative presence.
