ANT-278 Antique Restored Red-Bronzed Finished Art Deco Slip Shade Pair of Wall Sconces.
True high-end quality original cast iron antique frames with a lovely reddish bronzed finish. Circa 1930.
These Art Deco Slip Shade sconces were the only sconces made for this series of slip shade lights. It is difficult to cast reticulated backplates as any casting man will tell you.
The bronzed finish is simply superb. These fixtures are in oh-so-near mint condition. The shades too are simply in fantastic condition.
Measuring 12" tall with a width of 5 1/4", they project into a room (from the wall) a mere 4 3/4”.
These sconces have been completely re-wired with new 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.
Ready to go...nothing needs to be done except add the light bulbs of your choice. We would recommend our LED candlabrum bulbs, 35C-E26 if you wish ambient light rather than full room power. The ambiance of these is warm and draws so little electricity (1.6 watts) that we have known folks that leave them on 24/7. The bulbs do have an expected life of 25,000 - 30,000 hours.
