ANT-480 Pair of Lovely Art Deco Polychrome Sconces Circa 1933
Pair of antique Art Deco slip shade wall sconces by a firm in Cleveland, Ohio called: The Frankelite Co. Frankelite had a logo which was a stylized "F" in a diamond device, and issued their products under the trade name of Diamond Lighting Equipment.
These sconces, circa 1933, were part of the group they named the "Fenwick Series". Frankelite was a rather small firm, about which very little is known. We have a few examples of their work, and they are always rather unique and attractive stand-alone lights. The name and date of these fixtures is verified by literature from the company as stated above.
Wonderful condition. The shades are simply a treat, and in remarkable condition. The shades were probably made by Consolidated Glass, or another quality glass house.
We have rewired this pair of sconces in our UL shop with new porcelain sockets and rotary switches, just like the old ones. Ready to go!
