Pair of "Bubble" wall sconces inspired by Helena Tynell, 1960s-1970s.

Two clusters of crystalline glass bubbles, resting like dew drops on a mirror: this pair of wall sconces brings light into the scene with a gallery-like elegance. Each molded glass globe blooms in front of a wide chrome metal reflector with taut curves, capturing reflections and multiplying the brilliance, while the matte black base, simple and graphic, anchors the whole with refinement. The design is in the spirit of the famous "bubble" lights popularized by designer Helena Tynell for Limburg, Germany, in the late 1960s and 1970s, straddling late modernism and space age enthusiasm. The harmony of transparent glass and chrome adds a contemporary, timeless touch that complements both vintage interiors and current decor. Placed on either side of a headboard, a mirror, a fireplace, or an entry console, they diffuse a soft, sparkling light, ideal for a bedroom, living room, or a bathroom well-protected from humidity. They are in generally good condition, ready to be used, with a light patina of age on the metal and bases. Warm LED bulbs are perfectly suitable and preserve the delicacy of the glass.
