This is a gorgeous pair of superbly cast, single-arm iron sconces dating to the 1920's. These delightful sconces feature octagonal back plates with a twisted rope border and a smooth inner ring. A single arrow pierces each center ring, goes through a border of foliates and scrolls, and touches the twisted rope. The sconces are crowned with large, stylized anthemion finials. Simple, S-curved, iron arms spring from the lower portion of the backs and hold tulip-shaped bobeches. They are signed by their maker, the Moe-Bridges Company. The wall lamps are in excellent condition. They have been professionally rewired and come with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. We kept the original nonfunctioning turn switches for nostalgia’s sake; however, we would gladly replace them with new ones if so desired. The sconces are 10 ½†long, 4 ¼†wide, and protrude 4 ¾†from the wall.
