ANT-237 Pair of Antique Wall Sconces c1920

Lovely pair of Circa 1920 wall sconces.  Original antique backplates and original antique shades.

These sconces have a formal Edwardian ambiance having a pewter look but with a more restrained backplate design that is so typical of the Edwardian design style.

The shades are simple opal glass and match the straight line ambiance of the fixtures quite well.  They are in excellent condition.

The metal of the backplates is cast zinc and aluminum with a lovely pewter finish.  Ready to go...nothing needs to be done except add the light bulbs of your choice.    These sconces have been completely rewired with true bakelite sockets and all new wire.  We have also replaced the switches, made by Leviton in the 20#‘s...and still made up to ONE year ago.  So these switches, by Leviton are becoming even more antique as we note this.

We suggest using our neat little LED-bulb 45GE26  (picture below) if these sconces are for ambiance and less than full room light.  This little 2 watt bulb produces almost as much light as a 25 watt incandescent bulb but only nibbles at the electricity.  AND....it lasts 30,000 hours.


$ 295.00  for the complete pair... plus shipping
