THIS STUNNING FRENCH ART DECO CHANDELIER DATES FROM THE 1930s AND IS COMPOSED OF AN EXTREMELY UNUSUAL VASQUE IN PATE DE VERRE (HEAVY THICK MOULDED GLASS). THE VASQUE IS OF A BEAUTIFUL COLOUR  EFFECT OF MOTTLED GREEN AND PINK OVER A MOTTLED ORANGE BACKGROUND COLOUR, THE COLOURS BLENDING BEAUTIFULLY TO PRODUCE A VERY STYLISH CLASSIC ART DECO CENTREPIECE WHICH PRODUCES A SUPERB ATMOSPHERIC EFFECT OF DIFFUSED LIGHT WHEN LIT.

THE PATE DE VERRE VASQUE HAS FIXATIONS OF A CHAIN AND CEILING ROSE (NOT PERIOD).

THE CHANDELIER IS SIMPLY LIT BY A HANGING BULB.

THIS VERY RARE VASQUE IS SIGNED BY THE RENOWNED VERRIER, VIANNE, A CONTEMPORARY OF DEGUE, MULLER FRERES ETC.

THESE WONDERFULLY DECORATIVE PERIOD FRENCH  VASQUES WERE EXTREMELY POPULAR DURING THE ART DECO MOVEMENT IN FRANCE OF THE 1920-30's AND FEW HAVE SURVIVED INTACT.   SIGNED PIECES ARE BECOMING MUCH SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS AS AN INVESTMENT. THE HAND MADE VASQUES WERE MADE BY ESTABLISHED AND OFTEN RENOWNED GLASS MAKERS SUCH AS VIANNE AND THE QUALITY OF THE HEAVY GLASS AND WORKMANSHIP IS REALLY EXCEPTIONAL.    THE VASQUE WEIGHS A HEFTY 3 KILOS, A CERTAIN SIGN OF THE IMMENSE QUALITY OF THE PIECE.
