This extraordinary sculptural wall sconce, designed by Alberto Poli for Poliarte in the 1960s, showcases the distinctive character of Italian Brutalist design.
The sconce features an elaborate wrought iron frame with a dark finish, characterized by thin vertical metal elements of varying lengths, with irregular ends that create a dynamic, architectural composition.
The frame is adorned with geometric elements of handmade Murano glass, with textured, irregular surfaces in beautiful shades of emerald green, amber, clear crystal, and antique pink.
The contrast between the strength of the wrought iron and the luminosity of the colored glass creates a fascinating interplay of light, reflections, and transparencies, giving these wall sconces a powerful artistic and decorative presence.
True illuminated wall sculptures, these sconces represent a refined example of 1960s Italian craftsmanship and design, perfectly suited to contemporary, Brutalist, and sophisticated mid-century interiors.
There are 3 sconces available. Price is per each.
