About the Item

Made in Italy during the 1950s, this pair of wall lights features a shield-shaped brass backplate edged in grey lacquer, an angled brass arm, and a matching grey metal collar that secures a hand-blown opaline glass diffuser with a softly rounded cube profile. Each sconce is fitted with a standard E14 socket rated for 110–240 V, making the set usable in both European and United States installations. Brass elements display a uniform patina along with oxidation marks, and similar oxidation is visible on the grey-lacquered parts; the lacquer also shows light wear. The opaline glass shades are free of chips or cracks. Wiring is original and functional. Overall condition is good.
