FRENCH ART NOUVEAU / EARLY ART DECO PENDANT CHANDELIER – Ref. 00716
By DAUM (Nancy)
Wrought-iron mount strongly attributed to Edgar BRANDT
France, circa 1910–1915
A rare and refined French pendant chandelier featuring a blown double glass shade suspended from its original wrought-iron frame
The shade is signed “Daum + Nancy” (see photo), with a signature consistent with the 1910–1915 period
The wrought-iron mount is strongly attributed to Edgar Brandt, based on the well-documented artistic collaboration between Daum and Brandt during the early 20th century, the refinement of the forged ironwork, and the fact that Brandt’s lighting fixtures were most often unsigned. The elegant scrollwork and balanced proportions are characteristic of Brandt’s early production, bridging Art Nouveau and emerging Art Deco aesthetics

About Daum Frères
Founded in Nancy in 1878, Daum became one of the most important glassmakers of the Art Nouveau movement. Known for its innovative techniques—including acid-etched, enameled, and layered glass—Daum collaborated with leading artists and designers to produce refined decorative objects and lighting. Pieces signed “Daum Nancy” from the 1910–1915 period are especially sought after for their craftsmanship and artistic significance.
About Edgar Brandt
Edgar Brandt (1880–1960) was the foremost French master of artistic wrought iron in the early 20th century. Renowned for elevating ironwork to a fine art, he supplied exceptional mounts for leading decorative arts firms, including Daum. Their collaboration united luminous glass with sculptural forged iron, creating some of the most iconic French lighting designs of the period.
