sconce

The evolution of this design from a table lamp to a sconce amplifies its presence, providing a more intimate and focused light that enhances the surrounding space. As a sconce, the design becomes a striking element, casting dynamic shadows and highlights that accentuate the material’s beauty. This sconce is inspired by two distinct forms: dishes or shields, which are transformed from flat brass sheets into structured, spherical shapes, and heavy machine components with simple, precise geometries. The design stems from a deep fascination with the metallurgy and processing of brass, where its malleability is carefully shaped through techniques like metal spinning to bring the form to life. Handcrafted entirely from solid brass, the sconce combines traditional metalworking methods with contemporary artistry, offering a timeless design that enriches any space.
