About the Item

TYPE 5218 pair of Brutalist style brass wall lamps by Svend Aage Holm Sørensen, 1960s - beautiful midcentury pieces in excellent vintage condition. A pair of brass sconces with all the iconic Holm Sørensen signs - made in flame treated brass with serrated edges and as always with a wondrous rainbow specter of colors. In this pair the brass is shaped like a sunflower with a curved brass rod in front, which ends in a bulb socket. When lit, the brass plate reflects the emitted light and creates an almost dramatic effect on the wall due to the serrated edges, leaving a truly beautiful light-pattern in the evening, and is a dazzling sculptural light in the daytime. Vintage Holm Sorensen pieces that would look amazing hanging on an end-wall in a long hall way, framing a doorway or a large mirror, or perhaps accenting your favorite area with its intriguing Brutalist style. Both sconces are in excellent vintage condition with minimal signs of usage and age. Please see the photos! All original, but rewired with 1,5 m (4' 11.1") white plastic cord - for safety and beauty - and fitted with on/off switch placed at convenient height at the cord and standard Euro style two-pin plug - which is easily changed to your specific plug. Tested and fully functional. Cleaned, labeled and packed in protective bag. Light source: Two bulbs, Edison screw-fittings (E14/E12 with adapter) Max 40 Watt each (For this specific light I recommend using decor light bulbs - just ask me and I will help you find a local supplier!).
