Empire style. Modern work. Height: 47cm. - L: 31cm. - Depth: 26 cm. Maison TISSERANT "Swan" model, referenced 21917 in the catalogue. Public price 1500€ (each). Bronze gilding finish 24k. Provenance: Prestigious historic Parisian Palace on the Right Bank. WHAT WE THINK: these wall lights are of very good quality, the gilding is really spectacular, they come from TISSERANT, so necessarily a guarantee of a very high level. Prestigious origin. Certainly they are 20th century but given the quality these wall lights can compete in terms of finish with the best models of the 18th and 19th centuries. DID YOU KNOW ? Since 1930, the art bronze manufacturer Tisserant Art & Style has exercised its passion for bronze. A key player, the House, labeled Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (EPV), perpetuates and develops the work of bronze, true French know-how. In all, four generations have passed on their knowledge to create, re-create, reproduce and restore pieces, each more exceptional than the next. All were imagined and fashioned in the Tisserant Art & Style workshops located in the heart of the capital. He is also the only artistic bronzier to have kept his workshops in intramural Paris! A choice that allows them to stay close to historic and emblematic monuments, a real source of inspiration. Not to mention that this proximity facilitates meetings and collaborations in the workshop.
