Art Deco Machine Age Silvered Bronze & Frosted Glass Chandelier signed Petitot

Creator: Atelier Petitot
Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
A stunning exemplar of Art Deco elegance and Machine Age innovation, this rectilinear pendant chandelier by Petitot, crafted in France circa 1935, encapsulates the harmonious marriage of form and function so celebrated in its era. With a stringent adherence to geometry, the rectilinear structure presents a bold architectural symmetry that commands attention and admiration.

The chandelier’s design is layered with thoughtful details. Frosted glass shades diffuse light with a soft, ambient glow, heightening the refinement and creating a sense of intimacy within a space. Additionally, horizontal glass rods are meticulously arranged to echo the sleek lines of early 20th-century industrial design, offering a dynamic interplay of translucence and rigidity while diffusing the light from the interior of the chandelier in spectacular fashion. These elements are unified by silvered bronze fittings—cool, luminous, and enduring—imbuing the piece with a touch of opulence while maintaining a restrained, modern sensibility. Newly rewired to American Standards with height that can be adjusted to suit, this chandelier accommodates four candelabra base bulbs achieving up to 240 watts of light. In Excellent Vintage Condition. Signed Petitot on the internal surface of the frame.
