About the Item

A beautiful and rare pair of sconces designed by Louis Christiaan Kalff for Philips, dating from 1954. These sconces feature a stunning teak plywood frame, complemented by two opaline glass diffusing shades. Each lamp can accommodate up to 75 watts and uses a standard E27 bulb. The sconces are in good original condition, with the glass remaining in excellent condition. However, please note a very slight chip at the bottom of one of the opaline shades, as shown in the photo. This is a rare and iconic pair of lamps from Philips, perfect for collectors or lovers of mid-century design.
