A wonderful very rare French 1930 art deco lamp in nickel plated wrought iron. The forged base was made by Le fer forgé H.F. (Henri Fournet) and holds a precious acid engraved Daum shade. Fournet was the director of LeferforgeHF in Lyon France and had a huge shop (wholesale) in iron and bronze household articles alongside a line of high-quality wrought iron lamps and chandeliers. A lamp with almost similar but simpler base is represented with a Muller shade in both the 1930 and 1933 Fournet catalog.

The lamp has a height of 29 cm (11,4 inches). The shade has a diameter of 13,2 cm (5,2"). It is signed Daum Nancy France. The signature is visible on my pictures but in reality the naked eye cannot detect it. With scotch added it shows up though. The forged iron base has its original nickel plating. It shows it's 90 years old but is in excellent condition for its age. The lamp is rewired with new cotton covered twisted cord new plug and switch. For th3400e USA Canada or Japan it is wired with an American candelabra base socket and US 2-prong plug. For European countries I will place a E14 socket.
