This pair of wall sconces, produced by German manufacturer J.T. Kalmar in the 1970s, exemplifies a modernist approach to lighting. Crafted from chromed brass, the bodies present a highly reflective, mirror-like surface with a cool, silvery tone. Each sconce comprises a single elongated, sharply cut metal plate, bent at an angle to create a dynamic zigzag silhouette. The minimalist character is emphasized by crisp edges, precise joints, and the absence of visible screws or fasteners on the front. The surface is perfectly smooth and polished, free from patina or discoloration. The halogen B15d bulb provides focused illumination. Each sconce measures 31 cm in height, 5 cm in width, and 16 cm in depth. The condition is very good – with no visible damage or wear. These sconces evoke the story of 1970s German modernism, when geometry and purity of form defined the prestige of everyday objects. Their mirrored surfaces recall an era in which light and metal were intended to set a new order within interiors. The zigzag profile echoes architectural experiments with dynamism and chiaroscuro, while the precise craftsmanship hints at the meticulous attention to detail characteristic of ambitious workshops of the period. These lamps can be paired with furniture featuring simple lines—a dark wood shelving unit or a minimalist 1970s sofa—to highlight their sculptural character. They work well in a living room with modernist or industrial
