Art Deco Style Dancer Sculpture Clarté with Jade Ball Original Max Le Verrier
About the Item
“Lueur Jade” by Max Le Verrier – A Timeless Art Deco Masterpiece
Experience the refined elegance of the Art Deco era with “Lueur Jade,” an extraordinary sculpture by the iconic Max Le Verrier. First designed in 1928, this work stands as a testament to the creative brilliance of Le Verrier, who meticulously captured the dynamic beauty of the female form. A smaller version n of his career-defining piece “Clarté,” “Lueur Jade” replaces the lighted glass ball with a striking 5 cm jade sphere, offering a distinct sense of opulence and timeless sophistication.
This sculpture showcases a poised woman balancing gracefully on her feet, her arms extended to present the jade ball in a gesture of elegance and poise. The striking bob haircut and streamlined design reflect the aesthetics of the Jazz Age, while the sculpture’s inspiration draws from three different live models, including an Afro-American dancer from Josephine Baker’s legendary revue. This unique backstory adds cultural richness to its visual appeal.
Handcrafted from patinated spelter (French: régule) and mounted on a luxurious black marble base, “Lueur Jade” radiates a timeless charm. The green patina finish, achieved through artisanal techniques, ensures that each piece is unique, while the jade ball adds a layer of natural beauty and sophistication. The veining of the marble base varies naturally, making every sculpture one-of-a-kind.
Whether displayed on a console table, sideboard, or as a centerpiece in a luxurious living space, “Lueur Jade” adds an unmistakable aura of Art Deco glamour. Its historical significance and captivating form make it an essential addition for collectors and enthusiasts of 20th-century design.

Max Le Verrier
Max Le Verrier was born on January 29, 1891, in Neuilly-sur-Seine. He opened his studio in 1919 and won a medal at the famed 1925 Exposition in Paris that gave Art Deco its name. Later, he established a foundry that cast bronze sculptures for Pierre Le Faguays and Marcel Bourain, among others. Although Le Verrier experimented with other alloys, he continued to create pieces in bronze as well. Le Verrier died on June 6, 1973, in Paris.
