Wonderful pair of Murano pink glass and brass sconces. Archimede Seguso probably designed this fabulous pair of items during the 1940s in Murano, Italy. This set is amazing as it is made of amazing Murano pink glass with astonishing crystal glass petals. The curved and sinusoidal brass structure is breathtaking. These sconces are ideal for a mid-century entry hall or an art deco living room and are in good vintage condition. Archimede Seguso was an Italian glass manufacturer known for his intricate glass vases, necklaces, and sculptures. Spanning a wide range of forms and colors, his subject matter included animals and abstract shapes. Born in 1909 in Murano, Italy, he was part of an illustrious legacy of Italian glassmakers, their ancestry spanning over six centuries to the 14th century. Seguso notably led a revival of ancient Venetian glass-making techniques, specifically filigrana, which produced lattice-like patterns. Seguso ran the family business Seguso Vetri d'Arte, from 1937-1942. The artist died in 1999 in his hometown of Murano, Italy. The Seguso Company continues to produce glass, with works included in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
