Description

A charming and decorative pair of Antique Gilt Bronze Wall Sconces. The nicely detailed circular backplate forms the base for the twin arms. Griffin heads form one end of the arms which terminate in urn shapped nozzles. The nozzles are finely detailed with laurel leaf decoration to their base. The sconces were converted for electricity many years ago. We have left them 'as is' so you can revert them back for candle use if so wished. We will have them professionally rewired if they are to be used for electric. A really well made, decorative pair of antique sconces that have a wonderful colour and patina to their surface. Both are initialed and numbered on the reverse.
