Plafonnier marked C.S.R
chilternhills:
I have come across a conical lamp shade decorated with honesty seed pods, 40 cm in diameter, in satin glass. The vendor says it's by Etling. However, it is marked C.S.R on the shade. I have found other lamp shades thus marked. I cannot determine what C.S.R stands for. I cannot find anything on GMB discussing it before. As a guess, C could stand for Cristallerie.
I am aware of a similar lamp shade numbered 67 in the Choisy-le-Roi catalogue. Is this the same design? I haven't yet added this lamp shade to the Etling project web site.

More examples here too https://www.jonesantiquelighting.com/product/c-s-r-france-art-deco-plafonnier-circa-1935/ and https://www.jonesantiquelighting.com/product/c-s-r-france-art-deco-plafonnier-circa-1930/ and https://www.lot-art.com/auction-lots/Period-Art-Deco-French-Table-Lamp/371-period_artdeco-11.8.18-blackwell
I haven't managed to pin down the initials to any glassmaker in France yet though.

The C.S.R mark is not in Hartmann's Glasmarken Lexicon either. Yes, I took the plunge and bought the book. Expensive, but worth it.

Thinking it might be Cristallerie Saint R*****, I searched and found Cristallerie de Saint Remy and this.
