This ceramic wall sconce, made in Germany in the 1970s by 'PAN' Keramik, is a notably geometric design rooted in the mid-century modern movement. The structure features a solid pentagonal base with a deeply concave center, marked by concentric, rhythmic grooves. The glazing displays a warm, reflective palette ranging from amber and brown to ochre, shifting into a nearly black, matte-edged outer rim to create a subtle color gradient. At its core sits a silver-toned, convex bulb holder (E27 socket) with a pronounced chrome shine, offering a striking modernist accent. The modular design supports both vertical and horizontal mounting—whether as a standalone element or as part of a larger wall composition. The sconce is in very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks; the original electric fittings and cord remain functional.
This lamp channels the spirit of the 1970s, marked by a fascination with sculptural forms and innovative ceramics. The interplay of geometric volume, glaze contrast, and the polished chrome detail recalls the era of German modernism—an age when light defined space, and each luminaire became a small-scale art installation. It tells a tale of interiors where wall surfaces doubled as curated stages, where each sconce spoke quietly through its textures and reflected light.
