Pair Of Gilded Metal Wall Lights - Chinese Style - Maison Ramsay, Paris

Pair of gilded metal wall lights - Chinese décor - Maison Ramsay, Paris

Very elegant pair of gilded metal sconces with a décor known as "au Chinois", depicting two cross-legged figures wearing pagoda-shaped hats.

Each figure carries on its shoulders a long stylized bamboo, supporting two arms of light, thus forming a composition both balanced and refined.

The work is of fine quality, with very fresh original gilding, highlighting the details of the modeling and the elegance of the attitudes. The ensemble evokes the eighteenth-century taste for exoticism and chinoiserie, revisited in a decorative spirit of 1950s work.

These sconces decorated a very beautiful Parisian apartment, entirely furnished by Maison Ramsay in Paris, an unmissable benchmark for tasteful interior design.

The sconces are fully electrified and ready to install.

Dimensions:

• Width: 33 cm
• Total height: 29 cm
• Height of subjects: 22 cm
• Depth: 8 cm

Advice to interior designers, decorators and lovers of decorative arts in the taste of the 18th century with Chinese decor:

You can easily integrate this pair of sconces; on their own, they'll be enough to create a decor and seduce your clientele.
You could even complement them with small black shades, adding an even more romantic and charming touch.
I highly recommend them.

Price: €1,800 (non-negotiable)

Maison Ramsay - Paris

Founded in 1919, Maison Ramsay established itself during the 20th century as one of the Parisian signatures of tasteful interior design. Active mainly between the 1940s and 1970s, its style was both classic and refined, blending French elegance with modernist influences.

Specializing in the design of prestigious interiors - Haussmann apartments, private mansions and luxury residences - Maison Ramsay offered high-quality furnishings, often created with particular attention to materials and finishes.

Now defunct, Maison Ramsay belongs to the circle of historic interior design houses whose creations are sought-after for their timelessness, quality of execution and perfect fit with twentieth-century Parisian aesthetics.
