Pair of 1950s Jacques Biny Brass and Perforated Metal Sconces for Luminalite.
Executed in attractively patinated perforated brass, these innovative sconces by Jacques Biny provide a pleasing and indirect light. The curved shade reflects light off the large banded brass backing, filling any space with a warm glow. A very refined and quintessentially French Midcentury design by an increasingly collectible icon of the era. Unmarked.
Price is for the pair.
