Description
Pair of 1950s White Metal Model #26B Sconces by Gino Sarfatti for Arteluce.
Executed in white painted aluminum and brass. Double ball-jointed arm allows flexible shade adjustments and multiple configurations. The simplicity of Sarfatti's design and the sculptural shaping of the materials make for an incredibly refined example of this lighting master's influential approach, circa 1946-1950, Italy. Unmarked.
