AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sensationell Art Deco chandelier by Boris Lacroix, circa 1925/1930. Jean-Boris Lacroix (1902–1984) was an important French designer and interior architect, renowned for his exceptional lighting designs. The opal glass shades, comparable to the glass art of Lalique and other artists of the period, bear his LA+ monogram (L/A, or the Lacroix monogram with a cross); see the detail photos and the excerpt from an original lamp catalogue featuring very similar models. The lamp is a defining example of the Art Deco period and the craftsmanship of the era. All the lamp’s components are guaranteed to belong together in their original configuration; this is guaranteed to be an original lamp. The stylized birds appear on both the glass shades and the silver-plated bronze frame. When illuminated, the bluish glass glows in shades ranging from amber to opal. The wiring has been professionally renewed, and the five-arm frame and glass are in very good condition. Wonderful details and geometric forms typical of Art Deco. Indirect ceiling illumination, with three additional light points. Original bayonet sockets in good condition; the lamp can be fitted with B22 LED bulbs available from specialist retailers.

Very secure shipping in a double-padded insured carton, with separate packaging for each individual glass shade.

Shipping within the European Union. For shipments outside the European Union, there is an additional charge of approximately €100 for customs clearance documents.

Drop height: 80 cm

Overall diameter: 85 cm

Diameter of indirect-lighting bowl: 29 cm
