About the Item

The largest model of sconce that Poliarte made. The "Cratere" sconce is a beautifully proportioned piece. The complex layering and placing of glass and metal creates a wonderful lighting affect and a work of art. This is Albano Poli at his best; re-inventing objects of lighting and an ability to master the materials. The sconce has three internal lightbulb fixtures.
