The textured glass beautifully catches and diffuses the light, creating a particularly decorative effect.
The sconce has a warm brass-toned backplate with polished nickel/chrome accents, gracefully curved arms, and refined architectural detailing. The combination of the sculptural glass and mixed-metal construction gives these fixtures a sophisticated Modernist character.
They are reminiscent of Scandinavian designs from makers like Carl Fagerlund for Orrefors or Malmö Metallvarufabrik from the 1950s or 1960s.
The sconce can be particularly effective used along a hallway, flanking a doorway, fireplace or on column walls in a living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, study, entry, or other interior where distinctive architectural and eclectic lighting is desired.
Since the glass shades are hand-painted, there are slight and subtle variations in the tone and geometric patterns.
The glass shades are held with metal spring clips. The glass will be removed from the metal for safe transport.
A set of three almost identical pairs of sconces are available on another listing if needed. See less
