About the Item
A pair of French sconces from the 1960s, each formed of three elongated torch arms in gilt metal radiating from a circular backplate. The tapered bodies bear a rich, timeworn patina, their surfaces marked by the passage of age. Atop each torch, flame-shaped glass shades with marbled veining diffuse the light, casting a glow reminiscent of burning embers.
Sculptural and commanding—flank a mantel, frame a doorway, or anchor a corridor.
Condition: Good vintage condition. Gilt-metal frames show a timeworn patina with small rubs, minor finish losses, and oxidation consistent with age. These sconces have been professionally rewired by our team of restorationists with new sockets. Accepts three E12 light bulbs each. The glass shades of one sconce have minor damage along the top edges, as shown in the last photos. This is not visible if the sconce is installed roughly 5’ or higher from the floor.
