Blasset & Guggiari, One Sconce France 1957

About the Item

Blasset Jean & Guggiari André Extremely rare sconce coming from one of the last legal gambling club open in Paris, the " Club Anglais " ( The English Club ) This club created in 1918 by an association of American, Australian and British army pilots, did not have unfortunately the time to celebrate its 100th Anniversary it closed its business recently. We acquired  in this " Casino " all the gaming tables, Poker, Blackjack, Punto Banco (Baccarat), chairs, stools and all of these sconces. All the tables are now Sold. This sconce is made in bronze-mounted on wood covered with black vinyl. Some of them were covered with black leather, (the price indicated in this listing is for ONE sconce covered in original black vinyl). The lampshades were in glass when they were in the casino but we decided to custom the lampshades to retrieve their original shape as they were designed in the 1950s, meaning in a conic shape covered with fabric. Rewired for US, candelabra sockets. Literature: Illustrated in Mobilier et Decoration #8 November 1957.
