About the Item

Fabulous pair of sconces in beveled glass and brass with an internal back mirror. These gorgeous wall lamps were designed in Italy during the 1940s and are attributed to Fontana Arte. These marvelous lights consist in a brass structure that alternates harmonically magnificent triangular and rhombus shaped beveled glasses. The sconces internally are enhanced by a mirror on the back that enhances the light reflection. The rhombus shaped glasses are enriched with a fantastic snowflake shaped hand-cut decoration. The brass structure has been kept with their stunning natural even bronzed patina, which amplifies it's charm and historical value. The design and the contrast between the bronzed brass and the beveled glasses is incredibly elegant and timeless. These unique pair of sconces will be the perfect item for a neoclassic entrance hall or an Art Deco living room. Measure of the shade in cm: Depth - 10,5 Width - 21,5 Height - 24 The lamps are wired and tested.
