This pair of wall lights by the Italian manufacturer Veca exemplifies the sophisticated lighting design of the 1970s. The fixtures are defined by their sculptural form, featuring distinctive oval panels of tinted Murano glass that create a striking visual profile. Constructed with meticulous attention to detail, each sconce pairs polished chrome hardware with thick, precision-cut pink glass shields. The central cylindrical metal housing conceals the light source, allowing the illumination to diffuse softly through the coloured glass panels. This interplay between the cold, reflective metal and the warm, translucent glass is a hallmark of Italian Mid Century Modern production. The fixtures are designed to be mounted directly to the wall, offering a seamless integration into the interior architecture. Both wall lights remain in highly commendable condition, preserving their original structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. The glass panels retain their clarity and colour depth, while the metal components display a gentle character consistent with half a century of careful preservation. The reflective surfaces maintain their bright finish, contributing to the overall presence of the pieces. These Veca sconces serve as refined architectural accents within contemporary or vintage-inspired interiors. They are particularly well-suited for flanking a mirror in an entryway, illuminating a hallway, or providing atmospheric secondary lighting in a sophisticated living space.
