A distinctive and subtly playful pair of italian wall sconces from the 1950s, defined by a sculptural composition in brass with contrasting material details. each sconce features two elegantly curved arms extending from a central vertical structure, creating a balanced and dynamic silhouette. The central body is characterized by a tapered, spire-like form that adds a strong architectural presence, contrasted by the softer curvature of the arms. the design combines clean geometry with decorative elements, resulting in a refined yet slightly divertente character, typical of italian mid-century lighting. the brass surfaces display a rich and uneven patina, with areas of darker oxidation alongside lighter tones, consistent with age and adding depth and authenticity. Additional components introduce a subtle tonal variation, enhancing the overall visual interest without interrupting the coherence of the design. the sconces are in very good vintage condition, with minor signs of wear throughout. please note that the sconces are sold without lampshades, and bulbs are not included. vintage original fixtures.
