This German wall sconce from the 1970s exemplifies industrial design in the Bubble style. The structure features a thick, transparent glass shade with a smooth, slightly glossy finish, richly decorated with a pronounced pattern of regularly spaced raised bubbles across its dome. The shade sits on a porcelain base fitted with a classic E27 socket. Balanced proportions (21 cm height and width, 22 cm depth) and robust craftsmanship reflect mid-century modern and industrial influences. The piece remains in very good original condition, with no chips, cracks, or visible frosting to the glass. This sconce conveys the spirit of German design from the 1970s, when industrial motifs merged with playful explorations of texture and light. The bubble pattern seems to animate the form, diffusing light into a soft, tactile glow. It tells a story from an era searching for new approaches to everyday objects—where even a simple lamp could become a small sculpture of light, and glass transparency invited experiments with shadow and reflection. The sconce could serve as a single light point in a living room, hallway, or bedside area, fitting seamlessly into raw industrial interiors or spaces with mid-century modern accents. It pairs well with smooth surfaces—concrete, brick, or neutral walls—allowing the three-dimensional glass pattern to stand out. It could be combined with metal details or minimalist furnishings, or contrasted with warm textiles that soften the industrial tone. The shade is crafted from thick glass, resistant to minor impacts; the porcelain base ensures stable wall mounting. The lamp uses a standard E27 bulb socket. It is recommended to clean the glass gently with a soft cloth to preserve the glossy texture, and to handle the porcelain base with care to maintain its original appearance over time.
