Pair Gio Ponti for Fontana Arte Style Brass & Nile Green Sconces. Italy, 1950's

A refined pair of Italian Mid-Century wall sconces, circa 1950s , designed in the manner of Gio Ponti for FontanaArte , combining sculptural grooved brass with distinctive Nile green cut-crystal collars . Each sconce is conceived in a striking torch-form silhouette , with a fluted, tapering brass body rising from a circular architectural backplate enriched with radiating geometric detail. The upper section is accented by a substantial faceted crystal ring in a pale aqua-green tone, creating a luminous contrast against the warm brass structure. The combination of grooved brass, geometric mounting plates, and colored crystal is strongly associated with sophisticated Milanese lighting of the postwar period. Dimensions: 13 in. H × 5 in. W × 6.25 in. D
