Hettier &
Vincent
A beautiful and very rare petit pendant light by Hettier et Vincent. An authentic 1930 French art deco
hanging fixture in nickel plated bronze or solid brass
holding a beautiful bowl made by Verreries des Hanots . Des Hanots was like Verlys one of the brands
of the large Holophane glass company. It's done in glass pressed in a mold, made
opaque by acid and highlighted by glossy transparent polished parts. The shade represents flowers and butterflies. A smaller unsigned version exists as globe and was sold by Hanots to numerous lighting manufacturers. The larger bowl is very difficult to find and is almost always signed Hettier et Vincent France, like the one on offer here.
Hettier
& Vincent was a large well known French lighting company producing high
quality items. Wholesaler and retailer with its shop at the prestigious and
beautiful Place de Vosges in Paris. A pendant with an
identical bowl is represented in the 1st
supplement of the Hettier Vincent catalog on page 122. The same catalog also shows the H&V canopy (see pictures). The catalog is of course no part of this sale.
The chandelier is in excellent condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the mounting. The bowl has a
diameter of 27 cm (10,63"). The pendant has a height of about 47 cm
(18,5"). It is rewired and holds an American standard socket. For European countries I will place a E27 one.
I have two of these pendants available. The price is for one.
