A 1930s French art deco chandelier in nickel plated bronze or solid brass holding six shades in molded-pressed glass. A very rare model made by the glass manufactory Etablissements Jean Gauthier. All six are signed J.Robert.
The chandelier is in very good condition. It is 83 cm high (32,7 inches) and about 51,5cm (20,27") wide. The Gauthier cups have a diameter of 15 cm. I have re-nickeled and patinated the beautiful mounting. It is rewired with six American candelabra base sockets.

Jean Gauthier had his first workshop at 12-14 rue Jean Robert in Paris and later expended with factories in the town of Ezanville. In the early days just after the first world war Gauthier made cameo shades that were sometimes signed Gauthier. The plants in Ezanville were opened for the production of art deco glassware in molded-pressed glass. Many art deco models are unsigned. Some are signed EJG for Etablissements Jean Gauthier. Others are signed J.Robert pseudonym for J. Gauthier based on the street name of the first workshop. In the 30s Gauthier started a line of shades done in opalescent semi-crystal, mainly cups. Some models are unsigned. Others are signed EZAN France, signature for Gauthier based on the city of the second plant. See less
