André Delatte
A very rare French art deco lamp made around 1925-1930 by André Delatte. This tiny lamp is done in hand blown colored glass in a wrought iron frame. In this manner Delatte made a series of small vases. These vases are a hard find. I never encountered a version as miniature lamp before. Most of the vases like this lamp were unsigned.
The lamp is 11,8 cm (4,65 inches) high and some 6,8cm wide (2,7 inches). It is in excellent condition. The lamp is rewired with cloth covered twisted cord. I placed an American candelabra base socket and US 2-prong plug.

André Delatte was the banker of Muller frères. He became enthusiastic about glassware in the Muller plant and picked up a study in chemistry. After which he opened in 1921 his own glass manufactory Verreries de l'Est in Jarville near the city of Nancy producing mainly vases and lamp shades in colored mottled glass. In 1926 he moved to a larger factory in Nancy. Due to the crisis and the tough competition with Daum the company closed in 1933. Then Delatte together with the industrialist Georges Despordes opened a new glass workshop in the village Rive-de-Gier near Lyon. The new company was named "Art et Verrerie". Pieces produced at this plant were signed "Arvers". It was not a commercial success. Times had changed and war was in the air. And the company soon went bankrupt. From 1935 till 1937 he worked at the artistic department of the SEVBA glass factories. Delatte moved to the south of France and after the second world war went to work in insurances.
