Set of Two 1940s Art Deco Wood and Glass Italian Wall Sconces

About the Item

This set of two 1940s Italian Art Deco wall sconces is a beautiful and sculptural representation of the era's craftsmanship and dramatic aesthetic. These sconces are crafted from rich, warm-toned wood paired with frosted glass shades. The natural grain of the wood adds warmth and character. The standout feature is the carved wooden hand design. Each hand holds a wooden torch-style mount, giving the illusion of a hand gripping a flame — a bold and symbolic motif reminiscent of liberty or enlightenment. The frosted glass shades are shaped like stylized flames, enhancing the torch illusion and diffusing light with a soft, ambient glow. Each sconce has a wooden backplate with a rectangular form that anchors the "hand" and adds a geometric balance to the otherwise organic and figurative design. Strongly Art Deco with a hint of neoclassical romanticism. The form merges function with dramatic storytelling — a signature move in Deco design. These sconces would make a fantastic statement in an entryway, library, or vintage-inspired interior. They are in original condition, in working order, glasses have small signs of use and age visible on the photos.
