The sconces feature a striking and elegant construction using two primary materials: gleaming, polished brass and soft, luminous white glass Each sconce consists of a circular brass wall plate from which a curved, cantilevered arm extends, holding a cylindrical, trumpet-shaped glass diffuser. The angled projection and clean lines of the brass structure give the sconces a dynamic, architectural profile that is characteristic of high-end Italian design from the period. The white glass shades provide a warm, diffused, and inviting light, creating a beautiful contrast against the golden tone of the brass. This matching pair would serve as a luxurious and authentic statement in an entry hall, living area, or bedroom, perfectly complementing a Mid-Century, Hollywood Regency, or contemporary interior.
