ABOUT PRODUCTID 2530
This wall sconce from VEB Leuchtenbau Leipzig, dating from the 1970s, is a substantial and distinctive fixture crafted from gold-plated steel, weighing approximately 5 kg. The design consists of three parallel, slightly staggered cylindrical arms, emphasizing elongated proportions and symmetry. The surface presents a warm, saturated gold tone with a high-gloss finish, reflecting both light and surroundings. Each cylinder ends in an open E27 socket, suitable for standard light bulbs—optionally with mirrored surfaces to enhance the sculptural effect. The mounting base, also gold-plated steel, features a rounded, geometric form that harmonizes with the overall silhouette. The construction demonstrates precise metalwork, seamless joints, and robust solidity. The sconce is preserved in very good original condition, with only minor, age-appropriate surface scratches and no dents or structural damage. This lamp echoes the spirit of 1970s German modernism, where industrial precision met a fascination with the future and the allure of gold. The weighty, gilded arms evoke the era's space-age optimism, while the mirrored surfaces recall cinematic set pieces. The sconce seems to narrate a time when light and metal embodied modernity, and geometric forms were statements of bold, forward-looking interiors. The fixture would be well suited to spacious living rooms or entrance halls in a mid-century modern style, where gold tones can be balanced by neutral textiles and architectural details
