Un plafonnier en verre pressé aux palmes givrées, vers 1930

Une ogive de verre givré descend sous un large cerclage de métal, et tout le décor tient dans la matière même. Des palmes en relief se chevauchent, leurs nervures finement striées convergeant vers la pointe. Le dépoli retient la lumière au lieu de la laisser filer, si bien que chaque feuille se détache par un simple jeu de blanc sur blanc. La monture nickelée, soulignée de filets, a pris un ton plus chaud, et une molette de serrage voisine avec quelques points de vert-de-gris.

Charles et Ernest Schneider fondent leurs verreries en 1913 à Épinay-sur-Seine. Charles, formé à la sculpture aux Beaux-Arts, a d'abord travaillé avec Daum, et la maison emploie quelque cinq cents personnes en 1925. Les pièces Art déco de la manufacture portent en général la simple signature Schneider ; ici, le rebord du verre porte la marque SCHNEIDER FRANCE, suivie d'un numéro peu lisible sur la photo. Le verre pressé, poussé au piston dans un moule, se prête à ces reliefs répétés. La datation vers 1930 reste à confirmer sur l'objet.

Read in English

A frosted ogive of glass hangs beneath a broad metal ring, and all of its decoration lies in the material itself. Palms in relief overlap one another, their finely hatched ribs converging toward the tip. The satin surface holds the light rather than letting it run, so that each leaf stands out through a simple play of white on white. The nickel-plated mount, picked out with fine rings, has taken on a warmer tone, and a clamping thumbscrew sits beside a few spots of verdigris.

Charles and Ernest Schneider founded their glassworks at Épinay-sur-Seine in 1913. Charles, who had studied sculpture at the Beaux-Arts, first worked with Daum, and by 1925 the house employed some five hundred people. Art Deco pieces from the works generally bear the plain signature Schneider; here, the rim of the glass bears the mark SCHNEIDER FRANCE, followed by a number that is hard to read in the photograph. Pressed glass, forced into a mould by a plunger, lends itself to such repeated reliefs. The date of around 1930 remains to be confirmed on the piece.
