Eugène Cherrier and Charles Besnus took over the lighting business from Roger Massin in 1924 and developed fixtures that aligned with the modern design of the Art Deco period. The company combined decorative metalwork with glass shades and offered both classical designs as well as new geometric and stylized models. The lamp is carefully packaged and insured for shipment.
