Description from the seller
Rare and important chandelier "Le Verre Français" (Schneider) – Art Deco – Cameo glass and wrought iron – 5 lights
Splendid original chandelier from the Le Verre Français manufacture (signature of Charles Schneider), an iconic expression of 1920s Art Deco design.
The piece stands out for its high craftsmanship and excellent state of preservation. The structure consists of an original wrought-iron frame of fine workmanship, supporting five light sources with glass shades decorated using cameo technique.
The glass features a refined stylized woodland landscape, with a warm color palette (orange and brown tones) that creates a striking visual contrast when lit, typical of Schneider’s excellence.
The chandelier bears the cameo-engraved signature "Le Verre Français", clearly legible and slightly raised to the touch, an indisputable guarantee of its authenticity.
The item is perfectly intact. The glass shades show no chipping, cracks, or restorations. The wrought iron mounting is solid and complete in every part, preserving the original patina.
Dimensions: height 100 cm, width 57 cm
A rare opportunity for collectors of French glass and lovers of Art Deco aesthetics to acquire a piece of design history in excellent preservation.
Please carefully view the photographic gallery, which is an integral part of the description, in order to avoid any unpleasant misunderstandings.
Pickup in person at the seller’s location preferred. Shipping can be arranged at the buyer’s expense after the sale.
