Vintage Adjustable Double Wall Sconce in Brass and Patinated Green Metal, Italy, 1950s

Large double wall sconce produced in Italy during the 1950s.

A remarkable example of Italian mid-century modern lighting, this sculptural piece perfectly captures the elegance and innovation that defined post-war Italian design. Combining architectural precision with refined craftsmanship, it embodies the balance between functionality and aesthetic sophistication characteristic of the era.

The composition features a beautifully preserved brass structure paired with lacquered green metal shades that have developed an exceptional natural patina over decades. The contrast between the warm brass and the aged green finish gives the fixture a distinctive visual depth and an authentic vintage character impossible to replicate.

The adjustable shades allow for flexible directional lighting, while the perforations in the metal create subtle graphic patterns and atmospheric reflections once illuminated. These details soften the overall silhouette and enhance the sculptural quality of the piece.

Both decorative and highly functional. A striking lighting piece distinguished by its scale, material richness, and beautifully preserved patina.
