Large 1950s Stilnovo Brass and Glass Sconce

About the Item

Large 1950s Stilnovo brass and glass sconce. Executed in brass and thick opaline glass, with original unmodified cat eye shaped sculptural Italian brass backplate. A sculptural and refined design of attractive scale that is in many ways characteristic of 1950s Italian design at its highest level. Stilnovo was one of the most innovative lighting design companies in Italy during the midcentury era. Their designs have been long sought after by collectors in the know. Not UL listed, but recommended UL listing available from authorized 3rd party vendor upon request for an additional fee. Ref. related models #2078 in "Stilnovo: Apparecchi per L'illminazione" pub.
