Pair of Italian Blue Glass + Brass Sconces, 1960s
Composed of slender curved shades punctuated by small, flower-like brass fittings, a pair of Italian blue glass and brass sconces from the 1960s.
Each glass panel bows outward from the wall, forming an open cylinder segment around a single light. The transparent blue carries an aqua-green cast, with deeper color along the edges and bright vertical reflections across the curved surface. The bulb and narrow brass backplate remain visible within, giving the composition a light, layered appearance.
Two scalloped brass rosettes secure each shade, one above and one below the light. Their rounded outlines introduce a decorative counterpoint to the straight backplate and elongated glass. Cylindrical caps project from their centers, adding depth and small points of golden reflection.
When illuminated, warm light passes through the colored glass and spills around its open sides, creating a glow against the wall. The cool aqua tones and warm metal give the sconces a distinct presence even when unlit.
