Mid-West was a top-of-the-line manufacturer, who in their beginning, only cast solid bronze lights that were exceedingly difficult due to their reticulated surfaces. A bit later during the Depression, they added a white metal capacity to compete with Lincoln Mnf, who had the business of Sears. During the Depression, Sears customers would NOT normally come up to the pricing level of Bronze Materials, so Mid-West created exciting new aluminum lines to compete. Mid-West survived the Depression, and was sold a few years back to a large lighting conglomerate. (Information courtesy of the Kelly Art Deco Lighting Museum.) These sconces are Bronzed & Nickel FINISHED on cast aluminum. Like an old Persian carpet, some mellowed wear to the bronze finish is there, but still an outstanding pair of antique Art Deco sconces with mint condition frosted shades. We have re-wired these sconces to UL standards with new sockets in our UL shop. Each sconce has a rotary switch. They are ready to hang with a standard light mounting kit, which we will supply. Measurements: •Height: 11 ½" •Width: 6 ½" •Projection: A mere 4" from the wall into the room. These sconces can be fitted with either incandescent or LED bulbs. For incandescent bulbs, we recommend using no more than 60 to 65 watts to protect the fragile antique shades from excessive heat. Price: $935.00 for the pair with their frosted, near-mint glass shades, plus $25.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and International Customers: We gladly ship our listings to customers worldwide. Shipping costs are calculated and separately invoiced on a per-order basis.
