AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pair of wall sconces, Andy Thornton, Art Deco style, 1970s - England
Material: Glass
Signature: Andy Thornton
Style: Art Deco
Period: 1970s
Country of origin: England
Good condition for age and use
Overall dimensions: 30 x 35.5 x 15 cm.
Refined pair of ivory and brown glass wall sconces in Art Deco style, from the English house Andy Thornton, designed in the 1970s.
The pair features a truncated cone, fan-shaped form, with the upper part wider to direct light. The shade is made following the stained glass technique, using small pieces of glass joined together to imitate leaded glass but with modern techniques, probably the well-known Tiffany technique, in which glass fragments are joined by wrapping their edges with copper foil and then soldered with tin. On the back there are two metal joints that secure the support, hold the light bulbs, and allow mounting on the wall. The wiring has been recently renewed, and the pair of sconces is fully functional.
Andy Thornton is a British company founded in 1975, specialized in design, manufacture and supply of furniture, architectural metal carpentry and antiques for the hospitality, leisure and retail sectors. This pair likely belonged to their collection of vintage objects.
