The Wall Lights category spans more than a century of lighting history. Here you will find fixtures in brass, wrought iron, opal glass, wood, porcelain and aluminium – wall-mounted lamps that have been used for reading, decoration, accent lighting or pure function in everything from bedrooms to stairwells. Many are typical of their era: from the gas lamps of the 1900s to electrified porcelain luminaires in funkis, on to the organic forms of the 1950s, the colourful variations of the 1970s and contemporary, stylish interpretations.
Styles range from Art Nouveau and Art Deco to Modernism, Brutalism and Postmodern design. Wall lamps by Charlotte Perriand and Hans-Agne Jakobsson are often highly demanded, as are luminaires by Louis Poulsen, Orrefors and Ateljé Lyktan. Murano glass lamps, particularly those by esteemed makers like Barovier & Toso, bring a sculptural elegance and artisanal brilliance that continue to captivate collectors. Even unknown designers and anonymous brands can bring unique solutions, patina and charm to a wall lamp.
Auctionet's history of auctions showcases wall lights in a variety of styles, materials and conditions – from simple glass or porcelain light points to luminaires with a strong signature.
