Description from the seller

Mid-20th Century Murano Glass Wall Sconce – Elegant Twisted Crystal Arms

A striking Mid-Century wall sconce showcasing the timeless artistry of Murano-style glassmaking. Featuring two gracefully curved, twisted clear glass arms mounted on a warm brass backplate, this refined fixture beautifully combines Italian craftsmanship with elegant vintage design, making it a perfect decorative and functional accent.

The sculptural arms are crafted from finely twisted clear glass, creating a captivating play of light and texture. Each candle holder is complemented by delicately ribbed glass drip pans and brass fittings that enhance its sophisticated appearance. The harmonious blend of transparent glass and aged brass gives the piece an authentic mid-century character, ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors.

Origin: Italy, Murano style, mid-20th century.
Materials: Hand-worked twisted clear glass and brass.
Dimensions: Height 20 cm (7.9 in) × Width 32 cm (12.6 in) × Depth 22 cm (8.7 in).
Condition: Good vintage condition with an attractive natural patina to the brass consistent with age. The glass elements remain well preserved, with only light signs of use. The electrical system should be inspected and adapted to current standards before installation.

A highly decorative lighting piece that reflects the elegance and craftsmanship of Italian glassmaking. Its sculptural silhouette and quality materials make it an excellent addition for collectors of Murano-style lighting or anyone seeking a refined vintage statement piece.
