A rare French 1927-1935 art deco pendant light by Hettier et Vincent in nickel plated bronze. The mount holds a beautiful ball shaped shade in clear frosted thick moulded-pressed glass. This model is always unsigned and represented in the catalog of the glass factory "Verreries des Hanots".
The lamp can be found in the Hettier & Vincent catalog supplement #1 plate 131. The nickel-plated solid brass or bronze mounting is of excellent quality. Very fine detailed work as can be expected from Hettier & Vincent. The company of Calixte Vincent (1876-?) and Louis Hettier (1868-?) founded in 1924 when they took over la maison Millet. Note the ingenious and patented system of the H&V chain which allows the electrical wire to run as it were inside the chain.
The chandelier has a drop of 48 cm (18.9") and the ball has a diameter of about 17 cm. Of course I can shorten the chain on request. It is in excellent condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the mounting and it comes rewired. It is equipped with an American candelabra base socket.
