Description from the seller
Raffinate Italian wall lights from the 1950s in brass and acrylic glass – Elegant mid-century floral design
Magnificent set of Italian wall sconces dating from the 1950s, an authentic expression of postwar decorative design, where nature and form blend in a harmonious balance.
These luminous elements stand out for their finely worked brass structure, which unfolds in organic, slender lines, evoking stylized stems and leaves. The opaline white acrylic diffusers, with a soft, enveloping shape, recall elegant unopened flowers, spreading a warm and sophisticated light.
The result is a scenographic composition with striking visual impact, capable of enriching both classical interiors and contemporary spaces, fitting perfectly into Mid-Century, Hollywood Regency, or eclectic contexts.
