Vintage Brass Wall Lamps, Italian Mid-Century Modern, Decorative Sconces
About the Item
Vintage Italian LP12 sconce by Ignazio Gardella, brass frame and opaline glass mushroom-shaped lightshades. Some collectors indeed nickname these lamps "funghi", Italian for mushrooms.
Gardella originally designed the lamps for the "Galleria d'Arte Moderna" in Milano, and they were subsequently put into production by Azucena, the brand he had founded together with Luigi Caccia Dominioni and others.
Increasingly rare, these fixtures are not easy to come by despite being a rather common sight in Milanese entryways: who has a set is usually not willing to let them go.
We have two lamps available, sourced from an old apartment, they have been rewired and sockets have been replaced to ensure safety of use, as the original components were outdated and worn out.
Price is for one lamp only. Two available.

- Vintage Space Age Wall/Ceiling Lamp, Italian Design, Chrome Metal BladesLocated in Milano, ITThe Space Age Era, or Atomic Age, has been a very prolific couple of decades for design worldwide. Italy was no exceptions, with designers the likes of Joe Colombo, Goffredo Reggiani and Anna Castelli Ferrieri creating some timeless icons of which many are still produced to these days. But it wasn't all about resounding names: also lesser known designers created interesting pieces, often with a very personal and recognisable style. Amongst these certainly stands out Enrico Tronconi, whose area of interest was lighting design: he created several different pieces ranging from ceiling lamps and sconces to floor and table lamps. Most of them feature metal blades that resemble rocket propellers or air-cooled car engines. The present sconce, measuring 30cm in diameter, has indeed two wide blades painted in ochre and three smaller ones highlighted by a chrome coating. It is preserved in good conditions and only has minor signs of use; it's a stunning piece both when lit and when off. It is hardwired (220V standard) and has recently been rewired by a certified electrician. For more vintage Italian furniture...Category
