About the Item

Art deco lamp around 1930. Foot in wrought iron attributed to Fag (Marcel Vasseur). Tulip in glass paste signed Schneider. Electrified and in perfect condition. Height : 31.5 cm Width : 30 cm Depth : 18 cm Weight : 2.5 Kg   Charles SCHNEIDER, born February 23, 1881 and died January 7, 1953 in Épinay-sur-Seine (Seine), was a French Art Deco master glassmaker, student of Daum in Nancy and creator of the glassware brand of Le Verre French art, with his brother Ernest Schneider (1877-1937). They founded their own company, Verreries Schneider, in Épinay-sur-Seine in 1913. The success of the company was confirmed after the end of hostilities in 1918. It had up to five hundred employees in 1925 and sold its creations everywhere. in the world. After 1918, the first pieces with enameled decoration of flowers and landscapes took up the studies drawn before the war as well as those of his friend Gaston Hoffmann. However, Charles Schneider quickly became the sole creator of the pieces. Gradually moving away from Art Nouveau, he developed a very personal genre, characterized by bright, powerful, contrasting colors and naturalistic and stylized patterns, perfectly symbolizing the Art Deco style of the interwar period. The company produces under two brands, Le Verre Français and the Schneider line. The first is more accessible with 17 variations of shades against 32 at Schneider. It caused a sensation with its “butterfly” decoration created around 1925 representing red and blue insects on a cloudy azure background. Charles Charder, the master glassmaker of the house, also trained at Daum, signs some of his productions, and uses complex techniques such as bubbled glass. However, the glass market was seriously affected by the Great Depression of 1929 and led the Schneider brothers' company to bankruptcy in 1938. After the Second World War, Charles Schneider and his two children relaunched the adventure in the family property of Épinay-sur-Seine. After the death of the father in 1953, a fire ravaged the premises in 1957. The children, however, continued production in Lorris (Loiret) until 1983, the year during which the Schneider glassworks closed permanently. Crystal then replaced glass and the absence of color succeeded the shimmering contrasts of the previous era. Robert-Henri Schneider was active until 1977. The Charder manufacturing brand: Le Verre français was the largest art glass factory in Europe in the 1920s-1930s. A large majority of his creations, very marked by the school of Nancy, are due to Charles Schneider. The particular and judicious combination of shapes, new and diversified colors (yellow, mauve, tango orange) and decorations make the creations of this artist exceptional pieces, which are very popular today. Jeweled cups and black-footed cups are the hallmark of the brand. Colored glass powders fused between two or more layers of transparent glass made it possible to obtain an infinite variety of colored patterns. Marcel Vasseur (active around 1925) ironworker.
