Florentine Craftsmanship Applique Gilded Iron Colored Crystal Drops and Faceted
About the Item
We kindly suggest you read the whole description, because with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects.
Rich and charming Italian wall sconce; from a form of turned and gilded wood, a sinuous gilded iron frame branches out, the front volutes are surmounted by three glass bobeches above which are placed fake candle holders; the frame was then adorned with metal wires with small barrel-shaped glass, flower-shaped glass, and small hexagonal glass; then to give a final touch of elegance and kindness, the craftsman has skillfully distributed throughout the structure colored crystal drops ground and faceted; when the applique with its three points of light, is turned on spreads a delicate light, private and soft. It was completely handmade between 1946 and 1950 in Florence by an unknown craftsman, a misunderstood Master who, in his small workshop, managed to propose a unique, precious and elegant product; the "elegant" objects are those that are never associated with the word "magnificence" but with the simplicity of beauty and elegance. We must remember that Florence and Florentine craftsmanship come from afar, bringing with them values that already existed in the Middle Ages and that thanks to the "Corporations" and the enlightened Medici rulers made the city and its skilled craftsmen the center of the artistic world and of past and present history. In the last photo, you can see our restorer checking and fixing the applique before putting it on sale. Measures width cm.40, depth cm.25, height cm.50. The electrical system has been completely redone with US wiring, voltage compatibility in other states should always be verified by an electrician before use. For all our shipments we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) for maximum protection and safety of the objects.
