Vintage Florentine Wall Sconce XL in Forged Iron and Painted Sheet Metal – Black and Gold, 1970s

A spectacular and highly decorative vintage Florentine wall sconce made of wrought iron and painted sheet metal, dating back to the 1970s. This large wall sconce features an ornate wrought iron and painted sheet metal structure finished in black with aged gold accents. Graceful leaves evoking acanthus, curled branches, and a central lance-shaped ornament give the piece a theatrical elegance typical of decorative Florentine lights. The sconce is equipped with four light points, two lower bulbs styled like candles remaining exposed, while the two upper bulbs are adorned with charming cream fabric shades mounted above decorative crown-shaped gold metal cups and turned wood details. The beautiful black and gold finish, patina from time, gives the piece exceptional depth and authenticity. With its generous dimensions and striking symmetrical design, this wall sconce is much more than just a decorative item – it serves as a remarkable decorative element even when switched off. Perfect for an entrance hall, living room, dining room, or bedroom, and particularly suited for Hollywood Regency, eclectic Italian, maximalist, and classic interiors.
