Schneider - French Art Deco lamp
SCHNEIDER A French art deco lamp in wrought iron made around 1925-1930. It holds a beautiful coloured shade in mottled glass produced by Charles Schneider. It has the usual Schneider signature used around 1926-29. The lamp is 27,3 cm high. It's in good condition. The wrought iron base has a nice deep-brown patina and an egg gloss appearance. It is wired with new cloth covered twisted cord and is equiped with a stylish brass and porcelain E14 socket so you will have no difficulties finding suitable bulbs for it. Originaly old French lamps had B22 bayonet sockets. But they are very unpractical. Good quality modern light bulbs are hardly available. And for professional restorers 90 years old sockets are forbidden to use. So I wire lamps as these with E14 sockets for which bulbs are widely available. For European countries I will add a 15 watt bulb. For the States or Japan I will rewire the lamp with a US candelabra base socket and US 2-prong plug. Safe packaging guaranteed : As specialized restorer of French art Deco lighting for over 20 years I ship my parcels worldwide with the fragile items well protected and fully insured.
