Pair of Large Italian Mid-century Murano Glass "Bambu" Wall Sconces by Venini
-
Description
A Pair of Large, Italian Mid-Century Modern Murano / Venetian glass wall lights or sconces in a thick, opaque clear glass; and composed in an abstracted tree bark pattern, known as "Bambu" for their Bamboo ambiance. The pieces were designed and mold blown by the pre-eminent Italian glass blowing company, Venini, circa 1960. Their design is original, trend setting and iconic in their naturalist, yet modern aesthetic. Furthermore, their large size and clear but opaque glass are very functional in providing light. Each sconce has a backplate that can equip 2 sockets for effective lighting. Priced and sold as a pair.

T. Thomas Gargiulo came from a dual background as a Ph.D. in Psychology with extensive training in Art History and Anthropology to form Thomas Gallery in downtown Manhattan in 1997 to balance intellectual with design pursuits. Since its inception the gallery has seen decorative arts as a vibrant representation of human culture of each age and as a portal to understanding it. P: 917.434.4032 E: thomasgalleryltd@gmail.com
