A wonderful pair of French art deco wall sconces by Pierre Maynadier made around 1930. The nickel-plated bronze or solid brass mounts hold shades in clear frosted molded-pressed glass.
Maynadier had a manufactory producing art deco lighting during the interbellum in Paris (25 rue Saint-Sébastien). Nowadays most known for his beautifully designed bronze fixtures Pierre Maynadier made lights with wrought iron mounts as well. In the late 30s they started to produce lighting in pressed brass in a modernist style. After the war the son of Pierre took over and the grandson after him. The firm finally closed its doors in 1966.
The sconces are represented in the 1930 Pierre Maynadier product catalog. The mounts are marked MP for maynadier Pierre. The glass panels are unsigned. They were produced by Muller frères exclusively for maynadier. Both Maynadier and Muller sold these sconces with Maynadier made mounts in their stores.
The wall sconces are 37 cm high (14,57 inches) 10 cm (3,94") deep and 16,5 cm (6,5") wide. The pair is in very good condition. The panels have the usual small chips on the rim, hidden by the mountings. I have re-plated and patinated the beautiful mounts. And the fixtures come rewired with American candelabra base sockets.
I have two pairs available. The price is for one pair.
FREE SHIPPING OFFERED.
