AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Magnificent two-light wall sconce manufactured by Riper Lámparas, a prestigious Spanish decorative lighting manufacturer. This is an original period piece that retains its original warranty labels, a detail uncommon that increases its appeal to collectors.
The design stands out for its elegant central swan, the curved arms with classical-inspired shapes, and the acid-etched transparent crystal shades with floral decoration. The bottom of each shade is adorned with carved crystal teardrops, which provide an attractive play of reflections when the lamp is lit.
Its gilded brass finish and refined aesthetics make it an ideal piece for classic, vintage, or Hollywood Regency-style interiors.
