ABOUT PRODUCTID 44303
This pair of wall sconces from the 1970s, crafted by Josef Brumberg (JBS) in Sundern, represents a fusion of robust German mid-century design and the decorative exuberance of neo-baroque influences. The construction features a solid copper backplate with a pronounced, shield-like silhouette, marked by scalloped edges and ornate embossing. The copper’s warm, reddish-brown tone, finished in a softly matte surface with natural patina and subtle darkened spots, complements the central round insert of thick, amber-hued cast glass. Surrounding the glass, a rhythmic ring of raised copper dots adds sculptural depth and a striking accent. These sconces retain their original manual switches and electrical fittings, preserving the authenticity of the era. Condition is very good—only minor signs of age and gentle patina are visible, with no damage or repairs. The product is sold as a pair—the listed price is for the complete set of two sconces.These sconces embody the spirit of a decade balanced between modernist restraint and baroque ornamentation: light filtered through the amber glass evokes the ambiance of vintage parlors, where copper gleamed amid patterned textiles and rich detail. Each lamp seems to narrate the era when craftsmanship and ornament went hand in hand, the patina bearing witness to the passage of time without diminishing their dignity.The sconces could be paired with furniture in richly toned woods—oak or walnut—and earthy, warm-hued textiles to highlight their historical pedigree. They work well in mid-century modern living rooms, in classical spaces with antiques, and as a statement accent in eclectic collector
