Art Deco and Art Nouveau Lamps and Lighting
French Art Déco Sconces (Pair)
Pair of French wall lampes, original from the Art Déco period.
Table lamp - David Guéron - Signed Degué
ART FLAGEY Berlin presents this small, elegant Art Deco table lamp made of wrought iron and a molded glass shade, designed by David Guéron for Degué. The lamp was likely created during the early stages of his production and exhibits elements of Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The lamp's glass shade is signed with the characteristic Degué signature.
The satin pressed glass shade features a rich relief decoration with flower-like motifs reminiscent of daisies, exuding a warm, floral elegance when reflected in the light.
The shade is supported by an artfully crafted wrought iron mount, whose organic shapes still reveal the influence of Art Nouveau. However, the combination with the clear, decorative glass shade already hints at the transition to Art Deco.
An authentic collector's item from the renowned Degué manufactory, exemplifying the stylistic development between Art Nouveau and Art Deco.
Degué – Glass in French Art Deco
The "Verrerie d'Art Degué" was founded in 1926 by David Guéron (1892–1950) in Compiègne, later relocated to Paris, and continued production until the outbreak of World War II. Under the name Degué, Guéron created an extensive oeuvre of vases, bowls, lamps, and wall appliqués distinguished by their high artistic quality. Guéron's works were held in equal esteem alongside other important glass manufacturers such as Daum, Müller Frères, Charles Schneider, and René Lalique.
Degué's lamps exemplify the spirit of French Art Deco: a stylish balance between decorative, floral elements and functional, architectural forms.
Degué lamps are not only art-historically valued objects from the Art Deco era, but their timeless elegance also makes them a perfect fit for modern interiors.
