Pair of vintage French wall sconces from the 1960s–1970s, made of thick clear glass and chrome metal, each about 30 cm high and 15 cm in diameter with a relief-backed glass and a clear diffuser, in working order but showing age-related chrome wear and usage traces; electrical installation is old and should be checked before use.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful vintage pair of wall sconces, probably from the 1960s–1970s.
Each sconce features an imposing thick transparent glass oval diffuser, paired with a chrome metal mounting.
The most remarkable part is the back of the glass, worked in relief with several shapes reminiscent of peaks or rock formations. This molded glass creates very beautiful light effects and gives the set a character typical of Mid-Century / Space Age design.
The pair has a striking decorative presence with dimensions of about 30 cm high and 15 cm in diameter per sconce.
Sold as a pair.
Condition: generally good vintage condition. Signs of use and minor chrome wear related to age. Glass in good overall condition on visual inspection. Old electrical installation: recommended check before use.
No clearly identified manufacturer's mark; the sconces are offered without attribution to a particular designer or maker.
Dimensions of each sconce: height approx. 30 cm – maximum diameter approx. 15 cm.
Quantity: 2
Materials: thick molded glass and chrome metal
Estimated period: 1960–1970
