This German wall sconce from the 1970s is crafted from solid brass, featuring a semi-matte surface with a warm, golden-bronze tone accentuated by natural patina and subtle traces of oxidation.

The interior of the shade shows some darkening and signs of use, consistent with age. An E14 halogen bulb is included. The lamp is preserved in very good vintage condition, with clear signs of patina and minor scratches; there are no significant damages or repairs.
