About the Item

Pair of Art Deco wall sconces, circa 1930. Hammered iron frame, pressed molded glass shades decorated with pine cones. Wired, E14 socket. In excellent condition. Total height: 30.5 cm Width: 23.7 cm Depth: 16 cm Total weight: 2.5 kg The Société d'Exploitation des Verreries de Bagneaux (SEVB) played a central role in the history of the French glass industry. Founded in 1921 through the merger of Saint-Gobain and Verreries Appert Frères of Clichy, the company quickly established its influence in a rapidly evolving sector. Located in Bagneaux-sur-Loing, south of Paris, this region had been a leading glassmaking center since the 18th century. Thanks to an abundance of natural resources such as pure silica sand and wood to fuel the furnaces, the glass industry flourished, making Bagneaux one of the most important glassmaking centers in Europe throughout the 19th century. SEVB distinguished itself not only through its industrial role but also through its technical innovations. One of its most significant achievements was the creation of Pyrex glass in 1922. Developed by glassmakers Clovis and Léon Régent, this thermal shock-resistant borosilicate glass revolutionized industries, particularly in the culinary and scientific fields. Durable and practical, Pyrex glass was used to create all kinds of objects, from kitchen utensils to laboratory equipment, which led to the creation of the Société Le Pyrex. The company also expanded its activities by developing pressed-molded glass, which it sold directly to the public. To facilitate this task, SEVB opened offices in Paris at 7 rue de Surène, where it exhibited its creations and sold its products. It also partnered with metalworkers who assembled the glass into metal frames for items such as chandeliers, wall sconces, and lamps, thus merging art and industry to create unique designs. Throughout its history, SEVB has helped shape the glass industry in France and abroad, creating innovative products and influencing the aesthetics of glass objects while meeting the practical needs of everyday life. The company's legacy lives on in the world of glass and design, where its creations remain a model of innovation and elegance.
