In Scandinavia, during the mid-20th century, pieces were designed with the goal of serving generations to come. This was made possible by an emphasis on the creation of timeless designs that would suit the shifting tastes of the future. Working with high quality materials, and focusing on functionality, were some of the most important pillars of the design world.

Wall lamps are a timeless type of lighting fixture that can easily elevate their surroundings. These fixtures never go out of style, and have been in use for centuries for good reason. The simple style of this sconce is clean with a straightforwardly modern look. The lamp features a brass frame holding an opal glass shade.
