Italian Mid-Century Stilnovo-Style Brass Wall Sconce — Black & White Diabolo Shade with Articulating Arm
Couldn't load pickup availability
A striking pair of Italian-style brass wall sconces in the iconic Stilnovo "Diabolo" silhouette — the double-cone shade made famous in 1950s Milanese design. Hand-finished aged brass arms with full articulation pair beautifully with a glossy white enamelled lower bell and a matte black perforated upper cone, casting a warm uplight and a controlled task light from a single fixture.
Design highlights
- Twin-cone "Diabolo" shade — glossy white below, matte black above, with pinhole perforations that scatter delicate points of light onto the ceiling and surrounding wall
- Articulating brass swing-arm with three pivot points — wall mount, mid-arm joint and shade swivel — for total positioning freedom
- Solid aged-brass hardware with a warm patinated finish that softens with age
- Round brass wall plate with concealed mounting
- Two bulbs per fixture (one up, one down) — uplight and downlight in the same lamp
Perfect for
Bedside reading lights flanking a headboard, framing a hallway mirror, either side of a fireplace or as gallery wall lighting in a study, library or living room. Equally at home in a maximalist Italian-modern interior or a pared-back contemporary scheme.
