Sculptural and luminous, this wall sconce is composed of thick, handcrafted sheets of Murano glass with an ice-like effect. Transparent with amber veining, it glows when the lamp is turned on.
The metal frame with exposed pins holds the glass modules together in an irregular vertical composition, typical of mid-century Italian design. When the light is off, it's a glass sculpture; when it's on, it casts warm, amber reflections on the wall, creating unique plays of light for each piece because the glass is hand-blown and shaped.
