Exceptional French Art Deco ceiling light featuring four original molded frosted glass panels signed Degue (David Guéron, Paris). The fixture is executed in heavy cast bronze with refined geometric and floral detailing, characteristic of high-quality Parisian decorative arts from the interwar period.
The four Degue glass elements are designed to insert into the bronze structure and are shown removed only for safe shipping and clarity. All glass panels are original and intact, with no cracks or repairs. The bronze body displays a rich, authentic patina consistent with age and period craftsmanship.
The fixture retains its original sockets and internal components. Wiring is untested and should be professionally updated for modern installation.
Historical context:
This ceiling light was gifted to the seller by a family member who resided in a Sunset Island home historically associated with R. J. Reynolds Jr. While no formal documentation accompanies the piece, family history indicates the fixture originated from that residence. The fixture is priced and presented based on its confirmed artistic, material, and maker attributes, independent of this anecdotal context.
