Description from the seller

A wall lamp (sconce) of pure Italian postmodern design, produced between the late 1970s and early 1980s by G2 Vetri, a historic high-end Murano glass brand that later became part of the prestigious Vistosi group. The piece takes the form of a true fan-shaped light sculpture, distinguished by a refined combination of color and materials. The large front diffuser is made of fine white cased glass with an opalescent effect, designed to cast a warm, atmospheric glow. At the back, a second sculptural element in cobalt-blue blown artistic glass creates a magnificent visual contrast, with translucent details along the lamp’s lower edges. The supporting structure is made of black-painted metal. This piece represents an exceptional opportunity for collectors thanks to its completely intact period documentation: Original adhesive label on the front: “Glass made by Murano masters - Made in Italy” Original factory logo sticker: “G2 Made in Italy” Rare original period cardboard sales tag/label bearing the production code (50.1060/A), the color specification (WHITE / BLUE / BLACK), and the historic retail price in Italian lire (144,000 lire).
