Pair Of Gilded Iron Wall Sconces With Crystal Flowers, Banci, Second Half Of The 20th Century

A handcrafted Florentine ceiling light by Banci, featuring a dense interweaving of hammered, gilded iron leaves and five-petaled flower blossoms made from faceted crystal drops, each mounted individually to create a luminous, sparkling effect.At the center, the structure conceals six light fixtures (small screw-in sockets) skillfully camouflaged beneath the dome, which is richly adorned with leaves and flowers, ensuring ample illumination.

Condition: excellent overall condition; slight signs of wear consistent with its age and manufacturing technique; original electrical system in working order.

N.B. we have a second pair of wall sconces identical to this one and a pair of two-light wall sconces from the same manufacturer and series, but which differ from the four identical ones in their vertical rather than horizontal design; see:
