Renaissance Curtain Sconce

The Renaissance Curtain Sconce is a twist on the original Curtain Sconce. Instead of ceramic, this version is composed of a patinated brass body and curtains made with silk sourced in Florence. Each peice is unique as the patina is applied with brush strokes creating depth and glow that resembles a renaissance painting. The colors of the sconce was inspired by renaissance paintings and the term Chiaroscuro, which  is a Renaissance and Baroque painting technique that uses dramatic contrasts of light and shadow. Mastered by artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Caravaggio, the technique was used to create depth and intensity.

The Curtain Sconce is a composition of contrasts: a strong, sculptural ceramic top paired with a flowing pleated textile below. Ceramic beads glide along a track, opening and closing the curtain, functioning as an analogue dimmer.
