This pair of German wall sconces from the 1980s exemplifies the brutalist approach to lighting design: each sconce is constructed from irregularly arranged cylindrical brass tubes, forming a layered, architectural composition. The structure features robust, precisely crafted brass elements in a warm, medium-golden hue with a satiny, semi-matte finish and areas of natural patina that develop authentically over time. The tube ends are fitted with E14 bulb sockets, and the partially exposed bulbs reinforce the raw, industrial aesthetic of the lamps. Visible screw fittings and subtle metalwork details underscore the technical, honest dimension of the design, while the construction remains compact and functional. Both sconces are preserved in very good original condition, with patina and minor traces of age but no significant damage or repairs. These sconces embody the spirit of German 1980s design, when brutalism entered domestic interiors through bold, unapologetic forms. The rawness of brass and the geometric layout speak in the language of an era that celebrated exposed structures and the authenticity of materials, resulting in a sculptural, architectural impact. Each shadow and highlight on the satin surface recalls the fascination with engineering, architecture, and industry at the close of the twentieth century—these are fixtures that do not pretend to be mere decoration, but rather shape space
