This pair of wall sconces from 1970s Germany is crafted from brass and gold-plated steel in a deep, warm golden hue with a mirror-like, high-gloss finish. The design features cylindrical lamp heads with rounded edges and flexible gooseneck arms extending up to 45 cm, allowing for precise direction of light. Circular bases and integrated switches emphasize the minimalist, functional approach, while visible patina, scratches, and areas of oxidation reveal the lamps’ authentic vintage history. The overall aesthetic is rooted in late modernist minimalism, highlighting utility through clean lines and practical construction. There is a sense of calm equilibrium in these sconces—metal and light interacting as golden surfaces reflect their surroundings like water, while the soft curves of the shades hint at a gentle, diffused glow. Signs of age do not obscure their presence but instead create an impression of genuine character, as if the metal preserves decades of stories. The stripped-back form communicates a straightforward honesty of material and a focus on daily function. These sconces can be paired with geometric furniture or neutral textiles to accentuate their golden tones. They work well as focused lighting above a bed or near a sofa, with adjustable arms offering flexibility for reading or accent purposes. Consider placing them against matte white, gray, or deep navy walls to emphasize contrast and the reflective quality of the metal. Combined with minimalist shelving or ceramic details, they will contribute to a modern yet timeless setting. Subtle E14 bulbs will help create an intimate atmosphere in a bedroom or reading nook.
