Verreries des Hanots

A large 1930 French art deco chandelier in nickel plated bronze or solid brass holding six shades in moulded-pressed glass by the glass manufactory Verreries des Hanots. The mounting is done in the typical more modernist style of the 30s like we know of Petitot Charles Ranc and many others. I could not find out which lighting manufacturer made these mount. I have a second version of this model listed in another ad : a downlight chandelier with six Degué shades. The nice amber colored Hanots shades are all signed. The pattern is refered to in the old Holophane (Verlys & Hanots) catalogues as Les Losanges. The bowls plates and centerpieces done in this pattern were signed Verlys France. The tulips and cups for lighting were signed Hanots.

Holophane was a large company producing industrial glasses in high volumes, During the interbellum until around 1938 they made high quality lamp shades under the name of Verreries des Hanots and vases and sculptures with their brand name Verlys. Most shades of Hanots are unsigned and therefor unknow to a larger public but of the large French glass manufactories during the art deco era (Muller freres, Degué, Schneider) the quality of des Hanots shades is outstanding. The chandelier on offer is in excellent condition. It is 80 cm high (31-1/2"). I could shorten the chain.. the minimum height possible would be 68 cm (26-3/4"). It is 66,5cm (26-3/16 inches) wide and the Hanots cups have a diameter of 16 cm. One cup has moulding irregularity. Some traces of amber pigment inside the glass (see last picture). The heavy mounting is renickeled and patinated. It comes rewired with six American candelabra base sockets suitable for the USA Canada and Japan. For European countries and Australia I will place E14 ones.

Free shipping offered. Priority mail with full insurance. The lamp will be shipped in two or three parcels. I will partialy demount the fixture to make it fit the maximum size box post allows.

French lamps and wiring

Art deco lamps made in France were equiped with B22 bayonet sockets. For most countries like Europe or the US such sockets are practicaly impossible to use. For instance in the States 110 volt bulbs with B22 fitters are obscure, very hard to find and only one model bulb in very limited wattages is available. In spite of what sellers of unrestored pieces of poor quality claim in their ads when they offer lamps with bayonet caps sockets : except for the UK and Australia French chandeliers and lamps need to be rewired for your country. In order to fit Edison large or small screw base bulbs as used in the USA, B22 sockets have to be replaced by American candelabra base or standard/medium size Edison screw-in sockets. E14 and E27 are modern replacements for European countries. An additional complication is that the size thread used in early French lighting to connect the sockets to the chandelier mountings or lamp bases is not compatible with the modern size threads used in the USA and Europe. New American or European sockets do not just screw on to the old lamp fixtures. In order to make it possible to use an original old French chandelier or lamp with modern screw bulb bases, a specialized restorer will have to re-tap the threads. All my cleaned and restored chandeliers, sconces and lamps come rewired with the correct sockets you will need to use modern bulbs in your country.
