Rare Perforated Sconces by Ernest Igl, Germany 1950s

About the Item

High quality perforated sconces in very good condition. Three sconces available, the price is for one sconce. Designed by Ernest Igl in the 1950s The lamps feature a black lacquered thick metal half sphere shade which is perforated. When these sconces are lit they give a beautiful light effect. Czech modern designer Ernest Igl was born in 1920 in Prague. After graduating from the Munich Academy of Visual Arts, he founded the IGL Studio in Munich. After World War II, he worked as a graphic designer, illustrator, and industrial designer. While information on Igl is limited, his 1970 Jet Desk has found renewed popularity in recent re-editions, and his original designs—such as the Jet and the curvaceous 1971 Hadi Desk and Chair, produced by German company Bayer AG—are coveted by collectors.
