Spectacular Art Deco French Daum Nancy Lorraine Acid Etched lamp

About the Item

This is a remarkable piece. It is the height of Art Deco. The deep acid etching is of the highest quality and the metal work which is all nickel plated bronze is in perfect condition. The metal base and the top have a matching stepped design, an outstanding piece with deep curly acid etched designs in panels running along the top of the shade and bottom of the glass base. There is one minor repaired chip on the signature (see photo) "Daum + cross of Lorraine + Nancy France (professionally repaired), Careful attention has been paid to converting this piece to 110V, and keeping all the original nickel French sockets. The lamp is in two pieces, with the base and shade and both glass pieces are signed Daum Nancy with the cross of Lorraine. This is a fairly large table lamp with great provenance, size and weight. Would make an outstanding addition to any serious collection of French acid etched or Daum glass. A real work of art!

About Daum Glass
Daum excelled in the production of Art Deco glassware and its designers favored geometric forms as well as thicker and more transparent glass which contrasted with slender shapes and flowing lines of Art Nouveau glassware so popular at the turn of the century.. In the 1920s, the Art Nouveau colors inspired by nature changed to the colors which dominated contemporary abstract paintings, such as topaz, blues and ambers. Designs were increasingly monochromatic and variations of moon white, beige, glacier blue and light yellows were particularly popular. Vases, bowls and lamp shades no longer relied on the glassblowing technique but were cast and decorated with cut and acid-etched stylized patterns, as illustrated by this vase. The new manager Paul Daum was chemist by training and experimented with the use of hydrofluoric acid to vary surface textures of the glass. Towards the middle of the 1920s, friezes, volutes, curved beams or chevron patterns gave rhythm to compositions.
