It features stylized interpretations of a cobra snake offering sinuously curved cylindrical forms that taper to its tale representing the slithering silhouette of the serpent. The head represents an ovoid form- anatomically representative of the cobra's head with a stylized face all rendered in lustrous brass. At once whimsical and sophisticated, this sconce is as versatile as it is aesthetically compelling. It would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid-Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly rewired to American standards and is in excellent condition. It comes fitted with a custom shade.

France, circa 1950.
