Anonymous Probably Venice or Florence, Italy; ca. 1900 Giltwood
Approximate size: 12 (h) x 17 (w) x 5 (d) in. each
A beautiful pair of turn-of-the-century antique two-light wall sconces carved and painted in the Italian Baroque style. This distinguished pair of wall sconces feature a lovely grey-blue hue contrasting eloquently against highlighted giltwood features. The arms extend forward with acanthi carved motifs while the wall applique is formed by a scalloped shell motif surmounted by a cornucopia.
The sconces are hardwired but we encourage rewiring by a professional electrician.
Condition commensurate with age, inclusive of minor chips and losses to the paint and gilding, providing a time-weathered elegance.
