Description from the seller

The name Rethondes was very well known from the Art Nouveau period through to Art Deco.
In practice, glass production under the Rethondes name was often carried out in collaboration with the renowned Degué glassworks, founded by David Guéron in Paris.
Rethondes glassware is recognisable by its marbled effect and vivid colour combinations.
The wrought-iron decoration fits seamlessly with the transition from Art Nouveau to Art Deco.
This chandelier consists of a central bowl and three glass-paste candle cups.
Each piece is signed with the name Rethondes.
The chandelier still has its original French fittings (B22). These can of course easily be replaced with current fittings (modern EU standards), but the old ones are still available from certain lighting shops or simply online (e.g. Bol.com, Amazon.com, Lampdirect Belgium and other websites).
The chandelier is in very good condition and is probably more than a hundred years old. The materials used are an elegant wrought-iron frame, a central bowl and three glass-paste candle cups. It is of French origin. The main colours are predominantly mauve and marbled off-white.
The height is approximately 70 cm without the bowl, and the diameter of the wrought iron is approximately 40 cm, excluding the three curved arms from which the candle cups hang.
The chandelier is shipped exclusively within the European Union.
