Description from the seller
Schneider France – Art Deco Two-Light Wall Sconce with Signed Yellow-Orange Mottled Glass Shades and Bronze Swan Mount – circa 1930
Elegant French Art Deco two-light wall sconce fitted with two Schneider-signed mottled glass shades in yellow, cream and warm orange tones.
The clouded glass displays a refined graduated effect, with deeper colour near the base becoming lighter toward the top. When illuminated, the shades produce a warm and atmospheric glow.
The gilt and patinated bronze mount is decorated with two opposing swans with finely detailed wings, arranged around a central composition of palmettes, scrolls and foliage. Moulded collars create an elegant transition between the glass and the mount.
