About the Item

Introducing an exceptional Mid-Century Modernist Dual-Head Sconce, crafted in Denmark circa 1960. This sophisticated piece combines the elegance of brass, the subtle charm of frosted glass, and the warmth of teakwood to create a truly timeless design. The sconce features two heads, each encased in frosted glass diffusers that softly disperse light, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The brass elements add a touch of refinement, with their polished surfaces catching the light and providing a striking contrast to the frosted glass. The teakwood accents complete the design, bringing a natural element that enriches the overall aesthetic with its warm hues and distinctive grain. This harmonious blend of materials is characteristic of Mid-Century Modern design, which values both form and function. Ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of mid-century furnishings, this dual-head sconce is a beautiful example of Scandinavian craftsmanship and design principles. It seamlessly merges practicality with style, making it a versatile addition to various interior spaces. Whether installed in a hallway, bedroom, or living area, this sconce not only illuminates a space but also enhances it with its stylish and functional design. This sconce has been newly rewired to American Standards, and accommodates two Edison base bulbs achieving up to 200 watts of light. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
