Pair of wall sconces in brass from the 1950s – Elegance of clean lines

This pair of wall sconces from the late 1950s stands out for the lightness of its lines and the elegance of its brass construction. Each sconce features two slender, elongated arms that curve in a U-shape before rising toward the sockets. These are fitted with long conical brass sleeves, whose tapered form accentuates the verticality of the piece.

The shield-shaped wall plate, painted cream, has beveled edges that follow the wall closely and extend the soft, fluid sense of movement of the sconce.

The wall plate, designed as a shield with softened corners, echoes the movement of the arms and fully contributes to the composition. At its center, two closely set brass elements form a subtle raised decorative motif.

The piece evokes a pared-down interpretation of the traditional candelabrum, stripped of any superfluous ornamentation, echoing the lines found in some Italian lighting of the same period. The contrast between the slenderness of the rods, the depth of the curves, and the conical volumes gives these sconces a silhouette that is both airy and well balanced.

The pair of brass wall sconces reveals the refinement of its curved arms, extended by the elongation of its conical sleeves. The soft light highlights the fluidity of the lines and the warm patina of the metal.

These wall lamps show affinities with the aesthetic vocabulary of Günter Trieschmann, whose perforated brass wall sconce we have previously offered. The brass has a warm patina that highlights the curves and relief of the metal. When lit, the four light sources cast a soft, warm glow, while their symmetrical arrangement creates a regular rhythm on the wall.

Their design is particularly well suited to installation on either side of a mirror, a fireplace, or a Scandinavian sideboard, but also in a hallway, where their low visual footprint leaves full room for the architecture.
