About the Item

We are offering for sale stunning Italian wall lights dating back to the 1950s or early 1960s, completely restored by our trusted professionals. The first thing that makes this lot rare is the number of pieces it comprises: four vintage wall lights are available, so two pairs, making them perfect for bedroom lights. Made of brass, recently cleaned and treated with a product that delays oxidation for more than 10 years, they have an adjustable arm called a "pantograph" that extends from 42 cm in length when closed to a maximum of 62.5 cm. This adjustable arm is not only extendable but can rotate 180 degrees on the brass pivot to which it is attached. In my opinion, this would already be enough to warrant a purchase, but for the designer, unfortunately unknown to us, who designed them, it wasn't enough, so he added an additional curved arm that can rotate 360 degrees on the pivot, equipped with a locking lever, which secures it to the adjustable arm. The splendid aluminum lampshades in the gorgeous creamy white color with a subtle yellow undertone also adjust 360 degrees thanks to a brass joint, making these lamps perfect for reading or sewing. The lampshades have recently been powder-coated in the exact same color as their original ones. The lamps work; they have been completely rewired by a professional, and use small-base bulbs, called E14 in Italy. The lamps are perfect and will be delivered ready to be hung on the wall. Reach out with any additional questions.
