Salvagni’s desire to combine the age old casting techniques of both Murano glass and bronze with contemporary lighting technology has resulted in the Freida wall sconce.Each glass ‘petal’ of the sconce has been painstakingly cast using traditional Murano techniques, whilst the bronze frame has been created using the lost wax process,resulting in a wall sconce that pays its respect to heritage techniques whilst looking forward with a custom LED lighting system. The juxtaposition of new and old creates a compelling light sculpture.

LED lamping.
