A wonderful pair of large 1925-1935 French art deco wall sconces. The nickel-plated bronze or solid brass mounts hold beautiful panels in clear frosted molded-pressed glass by Noverdy. Both shades are signed "Noverdy France Deposé" on the inside of the shade.

The sconces are 10,5 inches high 9,5 inches wide and 6,6" deep. They are in excellent condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the mounts. The fixtures are rewired with American candelabra base sockets.

I have two pairs available. The price is for one pair.

NOVERDY - Verrerie des Vosges : René & Jean Drouhot
In 1924 the businessmen from Dijon father and son Jean and René Drouhot purchased Verrerie des Vosges. A glass factory in the Moselle based villages of Hoffmuhl and Lutzelbourg. In 1925 Jean and René Drouhot also took over the société anonyme des Verreries de Dijon. Which was a glass factory founded in 1893 producing tableware. They renamed it Nouvelle Verrerie de Dijon. The lamp shades that were produced in their plants are often unsigned. Sometimes signed Noverdy (for Nouvelle Verrerie de Dijon). And a few models were signed Verrerie des Vosges. Sometimes we can see the signature Noverdi on acid-engraved bowls or vases. In 1928 a certain monsieur Jean Noverdy won a price at an exhibition. The home address of this price winning fantasy figure was the house of Jean Drouhot. For the rest there is not one file or register where the name or brand (Jean) Noverdy shows up.
