Two Art Nouveau glass-panel lamps from Spain, brass frames and coloured glass shades, model Modernistas, estimated period 1950–1960, 24 cm high, 20 cm wide and 20 cm deep, in good used condition and in working order.
Description from the seller
They are two mid-century modernist stained-glass lamps, pieces that perfectly condense that taste for filtered light, vibrant color, and the artisanal geometry that defined much of the decorative design of the era. Each shade is formed by segments of glass in blue, green, red, gold, and transparent tones, assembled in a metal frame—likely aged brass—that provides warmth and a soft, characteristic glow of late modernism.
The faceted surfaces create an almost domed luminous effect, where each triangle and trapezoid of glass acts as a small chromatic window. When light passes through these pieces, the result is a play of reflections and shadows reminiscent of traditional artisanal stained glass, but reinterpreted with a more geometric and decorative language, typical of mid-20th-century modernism.
One of the lamps retains its complete structure and is ready for use, while the other requires wiring, something common in pieces from this era that have been stored or dismantled. The metal frame is in good condition, so the electrical installation can be renewed without affecting the aesthetic integrity of the set.
They are ideal pieces for those seeking lighting with soul, objects that not only illuminate but transform the ambiance with color, texture, and an artistic touch. They fit perfectly in interiors with a modernist style, in eclectic spaces, or in environments where glass craftsmanship and 20th-century vintage design are valued.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
