Beautiful French Art Deco (ca. 1920) Muller Frčres Luneville Wrought Iron Table Lamp, the stand with a traditional design of leaves, regretfully by an unknown designer, with a nice ‘pate-de-verre’ (glass paste) lampshade in mottled tones of orange and yellow, signed (etched) with ‘Muller Freres, Luneville’. 36.5cm high x (base) 14cm wide x 15.5cm deep, weight 1.1kg. Can be supplied with UK/European or USA plug and bulb.
Nice original condition (glass shade has tiny nibble which isn’t seen when mounted in its frame).
Muller Frčres (Co.) was an esteemed French glassmaking company based in Luneville, France, famous for its Art Nouveau and Art Deco vases, lampshades, and chandeliers, which often incorporate layered and coloured glass. Their workshop was established by Henri Muller and his brothers in 1895 after they trained with Émile Gallé – who would retain a grudge against Muller for setting up a rival enterprise. In 1910, the company began making lamps in association with Chapel
...le and, at its height, employed around 300 workers. The company’s lamps – largely characterized by elegantly crafted natural-world motifs and subtle, flowing, organic forms suggested by flowers and plants – are highly sought after and make for distinctive additions to any space. Production stopped in 1933 and the factory closed three years later, a victim of the Great Depression.
