Jean Gauthier (EJG)
A nice pair of authentic 1925-1930 French art deco wall lights in nickel plated solid brass or … more Jean Gauthier (EJG)
A nice pair of authentic 1925-1930 French art deco wall lights in nickel plated solid brass or bronze holding two beautiful panels in frosted moulded-pressed glass. The shades were acid frosted and then polished by hand to create glossy highlights. Both are signed J.Robert (for Etablissement Jean Gauthier). This shade model #1049 also exists signed EJG 1049 France. The old postcard showing the EJG workshop at 12-14 Jean Robert St. in Paris is no part of this sale.
The sconces are 26,5 cm wide (10,43") and 22,5 cm high (8,85"). They project 12 cm from the wall. Both are in excellent condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the fixtures. The last picture shows what the mounts looked like before I replated them. The wall lights come rewired. I placed American candelabra base sockets.
***
Jean Gauthier had his workshop at 12-14 rue Jean Robert in Paris and later expended with factories in the town of Ezanville. In the early days just after the first world war Gauthier made cameo shades that were signed Gauthier. The plants in Ezanville were opened for the production of art deco glassware in moulded-pressed glass. Many art deco models are unsigned. Some are signed EJG for Etablissements Jean Gauthier. Others are signed J.Robert pseudonym for J.Gauthier based on the street name of the first workshop. In the 30s Gauthier started a line of shades done in opalescent semi-crystal, mainly cups. Some models are unsigned. Others are signed EZAN France, signature for Gauthier based on the city of the second plant.
