French Gilt Bronze + Opaline Glass Sconce by Maison Arlus, 1960s

$2,900.00

A French sconce designed by Félix Agostini for Maison Arlus in the 1960s, defined by an organic silhouette, cast in gilt bronze, the three-arm form branches outward with a deliberate, almost botanical rhythm. 

The hammered surface catches and breaks the light across the bronze, bringing texture and movement to the structure. Truncated conical shades in opaline glass complete the composition, diffusing a soft, atmospheric glow when illuminated.

The branches extend from the wall, creating both presence and shadow, while the scale and simplicity allow the sconce to sit comfortably within a room without feeling merely functional.

DIMENSIONS: 12.5"W x 3"D x 23"H

ORIGIN: France

PERIOD: 1960s

MATERIALS: Glass,Bronze

CONDITION: Excellent overall vintage condition. Light patina to the gilt bronze that has naturally developed overtime. This sconce has been professionally rewired for U.S. use with three E12 sockets. Accepts three candelabra base light bulbs. Please note that this sconce does not have a backplate.
