Pair of Decorative Sconces with Porcelain Flowers. Circa 1970

Pair of decorative sconces adorned with porcelain flowers. The delicate flowers give these sconces a poetic, romantic character, making them decorative pieces as much as sources of light. French work, circa 1970.

Floral decoration in porcelain belongs to a long tradition in the decorative arts, reinterpreted in the 1970s in a decorative and whimsical spirit. As a pair, these sconces lend themselves to a symmetrical arrangement on either side of a bed, a mirror, a fireplace or a dressing table. They provide soft light and a touch of delicacy to a bedroom, a boudoir or a living room.
