Description from the seller
Rarest and spectacular pair of nautical-style wall lights (appliques) made of solid wood, brass, and featuring glass bells.
Probably dating from the 1960s or 1970s.
The wall lights each have one E27 bulb socket (bulbs not included).
Pieces more unique than rare, with pronounced personality and a very strong decorative impact that photos unfortunately can’t fully convey.
Dimensions approx.: diameter 34 cm x height 20 cm.
Each weighs about 2.8 kg.
Elegant home decor items that will add character and elegance to your home, while lighting it with style and efficiency.
N.B. small signs due to time and some minor stains are present; overall in more than good condition considering the time elapsed; N.B. some oxidation stains on the brass as shown in the photo; N.B. some scratches on the wooden part as shown in the photo; N.B. functioning, though we recommend an upgrade of the electrical system; N.B. please refer to the photos for the actual condition of the objects.
