Large Crystal Glass & Brass Wall Sconce by Orrefors & Lyfa. 1960s
Orrefors Crystal and Brass Sconce in size XL in design by Carl Fagerlund, Sweden. Thick mold-blown texturized crystal glass which is curved to a form of a half circle and held in place by two brass screws.
When the sconce is lit, the light sources and the richly textured crystal glass creates a soft illumination and spreads the emitted light in every direction. Hollywood Regency meets Scandinavian modernism and the sconces would fit perfectly as accent light in a living room or hallway, as bedside light or even in an office space.
Dimensions:
H 15.4” / 39 cm
W 5.3” / 13,5 cm
D 4.7” / 12 cm
Later lamp holder (one E26 bulb) & wiring, works perfectly.
One Wall Sconce is available.
