This wall sconce from the 1980s, crafted in Italy, exemplifies the floral Glamour style with a three-dimensional composition of gilded metal leaves radiating outwards from a central light source (E27 socket). The leaves are arranged in symmetrical layers, their surfaces finished in a warm, antique gold tone with subtle brownish patina accentuating the veins and naturalistic textures. The gold has a satin to semi-matte sheen, lending the piece a refined, slightly aged character, while the meticulous shaping of each leaf testifies to the craftsmanship typical of Italian decorative arts. Measuring 40 cm in diameter and 17 cm in depth, the construction is robust, with all elements firmly secured and no visible damage or noticeable wear. The sconce is preserved in very good condition, with no dents or losses. This piece speaks in the expressive language of 1980s Italian design, when classical references met a flair for theatricality. The gilded leaves unfold like a stylized laurel wreath, evoking echoes of palatial decor and the grandeur of bygone eras. When illuminated, the layered metal creates a play of shadows reminiscent of evening light in an ornate interior; the sconce seems to tell a story of Italian homes where art and craft collaborated to turn lighting into a spectacle of ambience. It could be paired with tall mirrors in gilded frames or marble consoles to emphasize its decorative presence
