This ceramic wall sconce from the 1970s, attributed to Scheurich (Kleinheubach, Germany), is an expressive example of German mid-century modernism. The sconce is crafted from robust, glazed ceramic in a vivid, saturated orange, accentuated by a dynamic, radiating relief pattern that frames a smooth central panel. The rectangular silhouette features softly rounded corners and a bold interplay of glossy orange and deep brown or black accents, adding visual depth and a three-dimensional effect. Intended for vertical wall mounting, the fixture houses two E14 sockets concealed behind the ceramic shield, allowing light to diffuse softly upwards, downwards, and sideways. An original pull-cord switch at the rear further emphasizes the collectible nature of this piece. The overall geometry and execution are faithful to the structured yet organic aesthetic of the decade. The sconce is preserved in very good condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or signs of restoration; the electrical installation is in working order.This sconce tells the story of 1970s German design—an era when color and light were at the heart of modernist exploration. The orange ceramic glaze reflects light like a setting sun, while the geometric raised border echoes the energy and audacity of the period. Each illumination revives memories of interiors where light was both function and ornament
