About the Item
A beautiful four-light Art Nouveau brass pendant chandelier with Pâte de Verre glass by Noverdy.
This impressive French Art Nouveau period chandelier features a central, beautifully shaped “Pâte de Verre” glass bowl in dark yellow, red, and blue tones, signed "Noverdy France", hung at three chains and three ornate arms holding each a “Pâte de Verre" glass lampshade in dark yellow, blue, and red tones as well. The signatures on three tulip lampshades are not visible anymore.
This splendid French pendant chandelier features one interior and three exterior lights each with a socket for the E27 (E26) size light bulb.
Dimensions: height 62 cm / 24.4 in; diameter 52 cm / 20.47 in.
In good, age-appropriate condition with slight signs of use.
The light fixture is in complete working order, but as with all vintage or antique lighting, we would always suggest it is tested and fitted by a qualified electrician.
The multicolored glass was made in the “Pâte de Verre” technique, used in the production of multicolored glass: a cold-formed paste of glass powder and dyes is filled in a refractory mold and then fired in a muffle furnace, wherein the glass melts into the desired shape. To achieve polychrome color effects, the process is repeated with other colors.
The production of Pâte de Verre is a slow process that requires a lot of manual skill to avoid bubbles, cloudiness, and cracks in the cooling process. The technique allows for accurate shapes and accurate color gradations in the workpiece, unlike any other glass processing technique.
The technique was already known in ancient Rome and Egypt. Especially in the Art Nouveau period, and later in the Art Deco era, she found artistic use again in works by French glass artists such as Gabriel Argy-Rousseau, Henry Cros, Albert Dammouse, François Décorchemont, Amalric Walter, Émile Gallé and George Despret. The Crystal Daum, a French manufacturer of commercial glassware, produced numerous works from Pâte de Verre.
