A stunning 1925-1935 French art deco chandelier by Hettier & Vincent in nickel plated bronze. The fixture holds six shades in molded-pressed glass. It's a beautiful model produced for H&V by Holophane (verreries des Hanots and Verlys). Hettier & Vincent was a well-known French lighting company. With a high-quality finish of their lamp fixtures their chandeliers are now much sought-after items. They produced lamps for the top end of the market and had their shop at the prestigious and beautiful Place de Vosges in Paris - the ground floor of number 7.
The chandelier has a drop of 79 cm (31,1") and it's 60 cm wide (23,62"). I can remove a part of the chain and reduce the drop some 2 inches. The chandelier is in excellent condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the fixture and it comes rewired. The chandelier holds six American candelabra base sockets.
The signature on this model shades is very close to the hole for the socket. When the shades came out of the mold these socket holes were ground into shape and often the signature got lost or only traces of it remained visible (see last picture). The six shades are in very good condition. In general glasses made by verreries des Hanots often show irregularities like very small hairlines or air bubbles due to the production proces.
