ABOUT PRODUCTID 2252
This pair of wall sconces by Glashütte Limburg, crafted in Germany in the 1980s, exemplifies the refined design language of late modernism, with clear references to Bauhaus and functionalist traditions. Each lamp features a robust construction: a highly polished, chrome-plated metal base and an elongated, cylindrical shade made of matte, cool white glass. The mirror-like luster of the chrome contrasts with the satin finish of the glass, highlighting a dialogue of textures. The structure is anchored by a compact, rectangular base, from which vertical glass tubes rise in balanced proportions, softened by rounded edges and exposed mounting screws that emphasize the industrial aspect. Both sconces are preserved in very good condition, with only minimal signs of oxidation and fine scratches on the metal; the glass remains free from cracks or chips. These sconces echo the understated voice of German modernism: an era when precise engineering was fused with restrained aesthetics. The matte glass diffuses light gently across the wall, while the chrome surface reflects glimpses of the interior, introducing a cool, graphic accent. There is a subtle interplay of light and shadow, technique and quiet ornamentation—as if the fixtures themselves declare, "We are witnesses to a time when simplicity and solidity were paramount."
