ABOUT PRODUCTID 4477
This pair of Viennese Art Nouveau wall sconces, crafted in Vienna circa 1900, exemplifies the artisanal craftsmanship of the early 20th century. Entirely made from polished brass in a warm, golden hue, the sconces reflect light to accentuate their sculptural quality. The design features a symmetrical, geometric arrangement characteristic of the Viennese Secession: two gracefully curved arms extend from a large, domed backplate adorned with concentric rings. Each arm ends in a wide, shallow candle holder with a subtly flared edge, echoing the organic lines of the era. Visible brass rivets attach the arms to the backplate, highlighting the handcrafted nature. The surface is smooth and highly polished, with no traces of patina or restoration. The wall sconces are preserved in excellent condition, with no visible signs of wear or damage. These sconces tell the story of a time when Vienna stood at the forefront of artistic innovation. Their form—geometric yet fluid—evokes the atmosphere of fin-de-siècle salons, where candlelight shimmered across golden metal, casting a gentle glow and creating a sense of theatricality. Every detail, from the concentric rings to the elegantly curved arms, suggests the optimism of the age, when art and function merged in the most refined expression. The sconces may be installed on either side of a mirror or artwork in a living room, where they will enhance symmetry and introduce a sense of historical depth. They suit Art Nouveau, classic, or eclectic interiors—pairing well with veneered furniture, velvet textiles, and period mirrors. In contemporary spaces, they can serve as a bold counterpoint, highlighting the dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and modern design. No additional technical information regarding
