Pair of Unique Patinated Metal Wall Sconces, France, 1970s

Pair of vintage rust-effect patinated metal wall sconces handcrafted in France during the 1970s.

Each sconce is composed of a geometric metal structure with a beautiful rust-effect patinated finish, giving the surface depth, texture and a distinctive aged character.

These exceptional pieces were custom-made to order by a French art metalworker, making them particularly unusual examples of French decorative lighting from the period. Their strong geometric composition gives the sconces an architectural and timeless presence.

When illuminated, the concealed light source produces an indirect glow, emphasizing the volumes, angles and textured patina of the metal while creating beautiful plays of light and shadow on the wall.

Both sculptural and functional, this unique pair works as a decorative composition even when switched off. A third matching wall sconce is also available.
