Small Pair of Italian Bent Glass and Brass 1940s Sconces

About the Item

This pair of small wall lamps was produced in Italy, circa 1940s in the manner of Pietro Chiesa. It is made from a brass structure with a sandblasted and bent glass shade. Very good vintage condition: the sconces have never been used (they come from a midcentury lightings store remainings), so they show normal traces of time (brass oxidation on the frame). Electrical system has been replaced in full respect to the original features of the items.
