NOVERDY

A nice French 1930 art deco pendant chandelier in nickel plated solid brass holding a small bowl in clear frosted molded-pressed glass by Noverdy the well-known glass factory in Dijon France. The fixture has a total height of 41,7 cm (16.41 inches) and a diameter of 30 cm (11.81"). The shade representing sunflowers is unsigned.
I have three of these light fixtures available.
One is marked 'depose' on the rim. These bowls were sold both signed and unsigned by Noverdy to numerous lighting manufacturers. The three pendants are in good condition. One of the three bowls has a tiny chip on the rim that hardly shows and does not distract. Like most shades in thick molded-pressed glass from the 20s and 30s there are some internal lines visible inside the glass.
I have replated and patinated the mount and it comes newly wired with a US standard base socket.

NOVERDY - Verrerie des Vosges : René & Jean Drouhot
In 1924 the businessmen from Dijon father and son Jean and René Drouhot purchased Verrerie des Vosges. A glass factory in the Moselle based villages of Hoffmuhl and Lutzelbourg. In 1925 Jean and René Drouot also took over the société anonyme des Verreries de Dijon. Which was a glass factory founded in 1893 producing tableware. They renamed it Nouvelle Verrerie de Dijon. The lamp shades that were produced in their plants are often unsigned. Sometimes signed Noverdy (for Nouvelle Verrerie de Dijon). And a few models were signed Verrerie des Vosges. Sometimes we can see the signature Noverdi on acid-engraved bowls or vases. In 1928 a certain monsieur Jean Noverdy won a price at an exhibition. The home address of this price winning fantasy figure was the house of Jean Drouhot. For the rest there is not one file or register where the name (jean) Noverdy shows up.
