Two 1980s Barovier Style Mid-Century Modern Rostrato Murano Glass Wall Sconces

About the Item

A pair of brass and Rostrato Murano glass wall sconces in the manner of Barovier; they work with 110-240 volts and require regular E27 bulbs. The electrical parts have been rewired, and the glasses are in perfect condition, while the brass has been cleaned. These mid-century modern Rostrato Murano glass wall sconces from the 1980s, in the style of Barovier, are a striking and elegant addition to any interior design scheme. Rostrato Murano glass is a particular style characterized by a ribbed, textured surface resembling the back of a seashell. This technique involves creating the ribbed effect using a tool called a "rostrato" during the blowing process. The resulting texture is visually stunning and highly tactile, making it a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts. The wall sconces themselves feature a sleek, minimalist design with clean lines and a simple yet elegant aesthetic. The Rostrato Murano glass shades are the focal point, with the ribbed texture creating a dramatic effect when illuminated. The use of high-quality brass adds to the sconces' luxurious feel, making them sophisticated and eye-catching pieces of functional art. This type of mid-century modern Murano glass wall sconce is highly coveted by collectors and enthusiasts of vintage lighting and Italian art glass. They are an excellent choice for anyone looking to add a touch of vintage glamour and sophistication to their home decor.
