Description
This pair of vintage La Murrina Murano glass wall sconces combines richly layered autumn colours with elegant tulip-inspired silhouettes, celebrating the expressive artistry of Venetian glassmaking.
Each substantial handcrafted shade has flowing organic curves reminiscent of a blooming tulip. The thick Murano glass combines orange, purple and green layers, creating an interplay of transparency, colour and depth. Warm amber-orange tones contrast with deeper violet and fresh green accents, evoking autumn foliage.
The sculptural glass flowers are mounted on gold-toned metal bases, adding warmth and a refined decorative touch. When illuminated, the colourful glass reveals its intricate layers and casts an atmospheric glow.
Picture the pair as artistic bedside lighting, framing a dressing-room mirror or adding colour to a hallway or living room. Their floral forms complement Mid-Century Modern and Art Nouveau-inspired interiors, combining traditional Murano craftsmanship with playful colour and sculptural design.
Important condition and installation note: The two gold-toned mounting bases have slightly different designs, visible in the photographs. One bulb holder is slightly loose and has some movement. It must be checked and secured by a qualified electrician before installation and use. These sconces should not be described as ready for immediate use without that work.
Minor age-related wear may be present on the metal components, consistent with vintage use. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.

Specifications
Bulb & Plug Compatibility
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.
