MAYNADIER

Pierre Maynadier was a manafacturer of high quality art deco lighting during the interbellum in Paris (25 rue Saint-Sébastien) near Bastille.
In the 20s Maynadier mainly used shades by Muller Frères for his bronze and wrought iron fixtures. The shades that are signed P.Maynadier were produced exclusively for Maynadier by Muller Frères in Luneville. Maynadier made the bronze and wrought-iron fixtures that Muller Frères used for their lighting in their own Muller Frères shops in Brussels, Berlin and Paris.
In the late 30s they started to make lighting in pressed brass in a modernist style. After the war his son and grandson continued the business. The firm finaly closed its doors in 1966.

They produced lamps for the top end of the market and had a shop at the prestigeous and beautiful Place de Vosges in Paris - the groundfloor of number 7. less
