Pair of French Black Iron + Glass Wall Sconces, 1950s
Executed in black iron, a pair of French wall sconces from the 1950s.
The silhouette is defined by a series of worked scrolls that extend outward in a symmetrical composition. The decorative flourishes feel rooted in traditional French metalwork.
Each sconce supports two candle-style lights, set above clear glass bobeches that introduce a subtle contrast to the darkened iron. White shades soften the illumination, casting a warm, diffused glow while emphasizing the graphic quality of the framework beneath. At the center, a gilt star motif provides a focal point, lending depth and visual rhythm to the composition.
Designed as a pair, the sconces create balance within a room. Flanking a fireplace, they frame a focal point. In a hallway, they bring warmth and scale to the wall. Positioned beside a mirror or artwork, they introduce both symmetry and texture.
