LOYS LUCHA
A beautiful French 1930 art deco chandelier in nickel plated solid brass or bronze holding a bowl by Loys Lucha. Being the glass manufactory of Louis Joseph Chaffard-Luçon (1880-1951). Based in Paris Boulogne-sur-Seine this company was specialized in cloisonné enameled shades in art deco style. In French art deco lighting we can only find a similar high quality enameled glass by Maxonade Aurys and the Daum related company Leune in Nancy. Around 1930 Chaffard moved to 31 rue Fernand Pelloutier in Boulogne-billancourt. The cloisonné enamels are placed on the inside of the shade. And it is glossy on the outside.
The bowl is signed Loys Lucha. The fixture has a total drop of 48,5 cm and a diameter of 41,8 cm. It is in very good condition. I have re-nickeled and patinated the mount. And it comes newly wired. The fixture holds a US standard base socket. For Europe I will place a E27 one.
