About the Item

Pair of 1970s Motoko Ishii Opaline Glass Double Sconces for Staff Leuchten. Executed in brass-plated metal and delicate blown opaline glass that reveals a soft pearlescent sheen when unlit. Produced in Germany in the 1960s and 1970s and designed by Japanese lighting pioneer Motoko Ishii; these double wall lights are among her refined mid-century designs produced by German manufacturer Staff Leuchten. The glass casts a pleasant warm glow that is ideal for powder rooms and interiors in need of soft indirect lighting. Price is for the pair. Each sconce accommodates 2x 60W max equivalent LED US candelabra (e12) bulb (LED only, not included). Professionally rewired for US electrical with new period-style 3.5-inch diameter backplate added for mounting over a standard American j-box. Not UL listed, but recommended UL listing possible from authorized 3rd party vendor upon request for an additional fee. Contact us to facilitate. Some age appropriate patina, dings, scuffs and wear as largely shown and noted only for accuracy.
