ABOUT PRODUCTID 11392
This 1950s picture light, manufactured in Germany, exemplifies functional mid-century modern design where technical precision is balanced with understated aesthetic appeal. The structure is anchored by a rectangular brass mounting plate with a matte, warm finish, featuring a prominent round switch and visible screws that emphasize its mechanical quality. The tubular opal glass shade, glossy and milk-white, is capped at both ends with matching brass rings, while a light beige fabric-covered power cord adds a tactile, retro accent. The horizontal orientation and rounded corners soften the industrial edge, and every detail points to craftsmanship and solidity. The sconce is in good condition, with a gentle patina on the brass and original electrics—no major damage, remaining fully functional.The form of this fixture echoes the spirit of postwar Western Europe, where the need for practical illumination met an emerging sensitivity to detail. Matte brass and the sheen of opal glass stage a quiet interplay of light and shadow—as if the lamp recalls galleries and living rooms where lighting was meant to reveal beauty without disturbing the calm. The gentle patina hints at the passage of time; the sconce stands as a silent companion to countless evenings, its discreet glow accentuating both art and interior.This sconce may be used as accent lighting above artwork or a collection of prints in a living room, study, or hallway. It pairs well with mid-century wooden or veneered furniture, as well as minimalist accessories in the spirit of mid-century modern. It can be combined with graphics in slim black frames or classic portraits to create a dialogue between the light and the displayed art. Interiors in shades of grey, beige, or bottle green will bring out the richness of the brass and soften the glow of the glass shade.
