An important chandelier decorated with dragons seated on a large crown of hammered copper, ornamented with oak leaves and stylized acorns, linked by foliage scrolls. Quickly, the United States was able to adapt their technical prowess to the artistic movements. The development of industrial foundries has given free rein to the imagination of artists in the early part of the century, a mixture of innovation as well as the spirit of the old continent. This amazing chandelier, with its hammered copper band, on which four fire-eating dragons are seated, is an extraordinary stylistic mixture. The strength of the ancestral dragons mingles with the lightness of the foliage and branches of oak. The power of bronze, joins with the finesse of copper to express an unexpected object of light. Of quite original taste, playing on the effects of the wrought iron and copper, this American dragon chandelier, created around 1920 is undoubtedly the work of a talented artist
Important lustre à décor de dragons reposant sur une large couronne de cuivre martelé orné de feuillages de chênes et de glands stylisés, le tout lié par des rinceaux feuillagés. Très tôt, les Etats-Unis ont su adapter l’avancée de leurs prouesses techniques à l'évolution des mouve- ments artistiques. Le développement des fonderies industrielles a donné libre cours à la fantaisie des artistes du début du siècle, mélange de nouveauté et d'esprit du vieux continent. Cet étonnant lustre à bandeau de cuivre martelé, sur lequel repose quatre dragons cracheurs de feu, en est un extraordinaire mélange stylistique. La force des dragons ancestraux se mêle à la légèreté des rinceaux feuillagés et des branches de chêne. La puissance du bronze, s’associe à la finesse du cuivre pour exprimer un objet de lumière inattendu. D'un goût tout à fait original, jouant sur les effets de matière, ce lustre aux dragons américain, réalisée vers 1920 est sans aucun doute l’œuvre d'un artiste talentueux.
