It features a hand blown conical shade with subtle striations at a bias running throughout the glass. The shade fans outwards from the curvilinear polished brass band on which it sits. With its clean modernist lines and beautiful quality Murano glass, this pair of sconces is as versatile as it is aesthetically pleasing, blending perfectly with any style of interior from Classic midcentury to contemporary. Each sconce accommodates a single Edison based bulb providing up to 100 watts of light each. They have been newly rewired to American standards and are in excellent condition. The sconces retain their original Fabbian labels. Italy, circa 1960. Dimensions: 7" D x 9" H x 14.25" W (each). less
