Art Deco Six-Arm Chandelier, Silvered Bronze, Mid-1920s France

About the Item

Beautifully finished in silvered bronze, with an attenuated shape and curving silhouette that reflects high style Art Deco in 1920s France, this sophisticated and lovely chandelier is a rare survivor. The shape and elegance of the chandelier shows the influence of Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann and other designers whose work was featured at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts), which later gave the Art Deco style its name. The chandelier features a tassel pendant in silvered bronze, and the six arms emanate from a central flower form. The top of the piece features an elaborate knot form. The piece has been rewired for contemporary use.

The abstracted breasts of the figure bring to mind the mature Cubism of Ossip Zadkine, Jean Souverbie...
