Pair of unique and attractive sconces...circa 1920's. The frames are cast and come with a nice and mellow pewter finish.
The opal shades are in great condition with only a couple of minor nicks where they go into the fitter...not seen after installation. The shades are tall so there will be no part of the light bulb that protrudes out of the top as many antique sconces do. A lovely baby-blue floral decor graces the top band.
Note how the ruffled shade tops match the fitter that holds them so very well and even blends with the shaped metal backplate. It just does go all together so very well.
Electrical: These sconces have been totally re-wired in our UL shop. Normal sockets for everyday medium base bulbs were installed in each sconce. We have also replaced the rotary switches, made by Leviton in the 20’s...and were still made up to ONE year ago. So these switches, by Leviton are becoming even more antique as we note this.
The sconce mounts with one normal sconce mounting all-thread to a normal electrical box from within the case. All mounting hardware will be supplied.
Measurements: 12†tall by 4 1/2†wide and projects into the room from the wall 5 3/8â€.
Price for the re-wired, complete pair: $350.00 as shown, plus $20.00 for Ground shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska/Hawaii and International customers, please call 360-379-9030 for a shipping quote.
