French Art Deco Ceiling Lamp by Marius-Ernest Sabino, Model 4649 “Cascade,” circa 1930
An exquisite French Art Deco ceiling lamp designed by Marius-Ernest Sabino, dating from the 1930s. This iconic model, known as “Cascade” and sometimes referred to as “Waterfall,” is Sabino’s model no. 4649. The shade is crafted from clear and frosted molded glass, featuring tiered, fluid forms that emulate the motion of cascading water—a motif central to Sabino’s luminous vocabulary.
Signed in relief: SABINO 4649 PARIS DEPOSÉ, This piece is a testament to Sabino’s mastery of glass artistry and his signature use of opalescent surfaces. The elegant glass shade is complemented by its original bronze mount, featuring a fine fire-gilt finish, which completes the refined and luxurious effect.
In very good original condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. A classic and popular design, the "Cascade" lamp remains one of Sabino’s most sought-after lighting forms, both for its visual poetry and Art Deco authenticity.
