Refined pair of “Lambda” wall sconces designed by Vico Magistretti for Artemide in the 1970s, showcasing the designer’s signature blend of sculptural clarity and functional elegance. Each sconce features a gently rounded, shield-like frosted glass diffuser with horizontal ribbing that softly modulates the light. The two glass halves are joined by a sleek central metal bracket, creating a clean vertical axis that enhances the fixture’s architectural presence. Two sources of light per sconce.
