A bold and collectible pair of vintage Italian wall sconces by Veca, in the iconic UFO / flying saucer silhouette that defined the Space Age aesthetic of the 1970s. Crafted from thick pressed cobalt blue glass with metal fittings, these sconces produce a rich, glowing sculptural effect when lit — the deep blue glass transforming light into something atmospheric and deeply considered.

This is a labelled pair — a rare find for Veca collectors — confirming authentic manufacture. Veca were celebrated in the 1970s for their space-age silhouettes and elegant Italian glasswork, and this example represents their output at its most graphic and distinctive. Ideal for hallways, bathrooms, bedrooms, or accent walls in modernist, retro, or eclectic interiors.

All pieces use standard Edison screw fittings: E27 (large, most pendants and sconces) or E14 (small, table lamps and multi-arm chandeliers). A handful of pieces use halogen — noted in the listing. E27 and E26 are interchangeable with a simple ring adapter.

These are straightforward socket circuits with no built-in electronics, so they're fully voltage-agnostic — just fit a bulb rated for your local voltage (110V or 220V) and it works.

Plug-in lamps: you'll need a standard EU-to-local plug adapter (EU Type C/F to US Type A/B, UK Type G, AU Type I, etc.). No voltage converter required.
