Pair of Italian wall lamps in brass and opaline glass

About the Item

Elegant Mid-Century Pair of Italian Brass Wall Sconces - 1950s Design with Opaline Glass Spheres Add a touch of timeless elegance and Italian design mastery to your interior with this refined pair of mid-century wall sconces, crafted in Italy in the 1950s. A perfect expression of the era's design ethos, these sconces blend sculptural geometry, noble materials, and atmospheric lighting into a lighting solution that is both functional and iconic. Design and Materials Each sconce features a beautifully brass structure with a semi-circular support element, delicately crafted to cradle its globe-shaped opaline glass shades. This unique design allows for the insertion of the light socket within the curvature, creating a sense of unity between the brass and the glass-a detail that enhances both the aesthetic balance and visual harmony of the piece. The pair includes a total of six light sources (three per sconce), each covered by a perfectly rounded white opaline glass sphere, which softly diffuses light and adds a warm, ambient glow to any environment. The brass structure shows a charming patina of time, with slight abrasions that testify to its authentic mid-century origin and add character to its vintage appeal. The sconces are designed to be wall-mounted via discreet brass backplates, allowing them to sit elegantly on the surface while offering structural integrity. Once installed, the spherical forms seem to float, creating captivating geometric plays of light and shadow, typical of Italian mid-century modern design.
