Item description

A pair of 1970s Italian Wall Sconces by master glassmaker Albano Poli for his renowned firm, Poliarte. These lights are a definitive expression of the Space Age and Brutalist design movements, featuring a striking geometric composition that offers both ambient light and sculptural presence. Each sconce is mounted on a sleek, square backplate of brushed stainless steel, providing a cool, industrial contrast to the heavy, textured glass. The focal point is the cluster of four rectangular, hand-blown Murano glass blocks, which are positioned to form a striking diamond or cross-like pattern around the central light fitting. The glass has a distinctive pulegoso or bullicante texture, embedded with countless tiny air bubbles that wonderfully diffuse the light, giving off a soft, ethereal glow. This ice-like, brutalist glass combined with the minimalist metal structure makes for a dramatic piece of functional art. These wall lamps are perfect for adding a touch of authentic Italian Mid-Century Modern glamour to an entryway, hallway, or flanking a piece of art. They represent high-quality Italian craftsmanship and the bold design sensibility of the 1970s. they are in working order and in good condition overall.
