Description from the seller

YOUR FRENCH WALL SCONES (WALL LAMPS)

Elegant Pair of French Mid-Century Brass Wall Sconces with Decorated Opaline Glass Shades (c. 1950s–1960s).

A charming duo of vintage French wall lamps combining warm brass with sculptural opaline glass diffusers. Each shade features a refined hand-decorated motif: delicate golden strokes accented with small green dots : subtle, graphic, and unmistakably mid-century.

Once lit, the opaline glass delivers a soft, atmospheric glow: ideal for a hallway, above a bookshelf, as bedside lighting, or to bring a gentle vintage touch to a reading corner. The brass wall plates and curved arms add a classic, timeless elegance that pairs beautifully with both modern and traditional interiors.

Origin : Bordeaux, France

∙ Set of 2 matching Wall Sconces (Wall lamps)
∙ Brass wall mount + arm (warm patina consistent with age)
∙ Opaline/milk glass shades with decorative pattern

∙ Dimensions : Depth 18 cm × Width 9 cm × Height 16 cm
