ABOUT PRODUCTID 2952
This pair of German wall sconces from the 1980s exemplifies postmodern design, where highly polished, mirror-like aluminum is combined with thick, clear glass accents. The cool, silvery surfaces reveal subtle blue and violet reflections depending on the angle of light. The bodies are shaped in elongated, aerodynamic forms with sharp, dynamic lines and pointed ends, while asymmetrical proportions create a sense of movement and flow. The glass discs—showing a slight greenish tint at the edges—provide a striking contrast to the metal structure. The seamless construction, with no visible screws or fasteners, adds to the sculptural quality, and the smooth, glossy finish amplifies the visual impact. Each sconce measures 52 cm in height, 25 cm in width, and 20 cm in depth. Condition: very good, with minor surface scratches consistent with gentle use and age. These lamps evoke the spirit of a late-20th-century fascination with futuristic visions: the postmodern design language draws on influences from space-age and biomorphic aesthetics, turning a functional object into a dynamic decorative feature. The polished aluminum reflects its surroundings like a sheet of water, while the suspended glass disc—caught between light and shadow—suggests the lightness and modernity that defined a decade of bold experimentation. This lighting, echoing the 1980s, merges material
