A beautiful pair of French art deco wall sconces around 1935 by the famous Paris based lighting company maison Petitot. Polished solid brass mounts hold plume shaped slip shades in molded-pressed glass. The shades have a frosted structured surface on the inside giving them a vivid appearance. On the outside the glass is high-lighted with gold paint. The shades are signed Ezan France. Ezan for the large glass manufactory of Jean Gauthier in the town of Ezanville a little north from Paris. In the 30s it became well known for its glassware in bluish opalescent semi-crystal like we can often see on Charles Ranc or Hubert Petitot chandeliers of the mid-thirties. Both fixtures are signed petitot on the inside.

The sconces are in excellent condition. I have cleaned and polished the brass mounts. And they come rewired. I placed American candelabra base sockets. The shades are without chips or cracks. The gold enamel on the glass surface shows some non-disturbing minimal signs of wear. Which is always the case for these Ezan feather shades. The wall lamps are about 30,5 cm high (12") and 11 cm wide (4-5/16").

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