Pair of Monumental Pietro Chiesa for Fontana Arte Rare 7-Light Glass Sconces, 1950s

Few vintage wall sconces command a room with the authority of this monumental pair by Pietro Chiesa for Fontana Arte, where thick shield-shaped "Nilo" glass backplates function as both structure and luminous field, their polished edges throwing a delicate halo of light against the wall. Seven scrolling brass arms unfurl from each backplate in a vertical rhythm, each crowned by a stylized enameled metal flower whose petal-shaped corolla filters light into a layered play of reflections and shadow across the glass surface. Professionally rewired for modern use and extraordinary in scale, this is Italian mid-century decorative lighting at its most ambitious and assured.
