A defining piece of italian mid-century lighting design, the foglio sconce blends geometric simplicity with a sculptural presence. Each fixture is crafted from a single folded sheet of metal, finished in a glossy white enamel that enhances its clean, minimalist form. The design wraps around two hidden light sources, creating a soft, ambient glow that reflects off the white interior and exterior surfaces. Light is directed both upward and downward, making these sconces ideal for subtle, atmospheric illumination. This set is in excellent vintage condition, showing only minor traces of use consistent with careful handling and age. The enamel remains clean and bright, with minimal surface wear. These are well-preserved examples of a now-iconic lighting design. All four sconces have been professionally rewired and are in full working order. They use standard e27 bulbs (not included) and are compatible with both led and incandescent options. Original flos mounting brackets, stamped art. 441 – made in italy, are included, ensuring authentic presentation and easy installation.
