A pair of midcentury Italian hammered brass wall sconces by Carlo Giorgi for Bottega Gadda.

Each sconce consists of two hammered brass leaves covering bakelite light sockets.

The leaves are in original condition with very nice age appropriate vintage patina.

Bottega Gadda (Gadda’s boutique) was founded in Milan in 1970 as an artisan workshop for metalworking and lamp production by Carlo Gadda. He designed many lighting fixtures and decorative objects in brass, copper, bronze and pewter. In the 1970s this “Hollywood Regency” style became popular.

The most well known creations of that time were the leaf lamps designed by Carlo Giorgi, an Italian designer and architect, also from Milan. Many of his designs were produced for a very long time, until the end of the company in 2016. All kinds of leaf lamps were made. In the form of rhubarb, butterbur, ginkgo (maidenhair tree), and several others.
