These Victorian wall sconces date from circa 1890 and are executed in a Mughal style with silver plating over a brass foundation. Each sconce features three curved branch arms supporting fluted candle nozzles, gadrooned finials, and delicate hanging ring drops suspended beneath the lower components. The design incorporates polished surfaces with bright reflective qualities that catch the ambient light from multiple angles, alongside traditional turned and moulded elements that give depth to the metalwork. The pieces measure 34 cm high, 31 cm wide, and 18 cm deep. Ideal for interior placement in narrow wall spaces, they provide decorative wall lighting when mounted in hallways, dining rooms, or living areas alongside period or eclectic decorative schemes.

FAQs

During the late nineteenth century, British metalworkers incorporated Indo-Persian and Mughal design elements into home decor, featuring fluted bulbous shapes, gadrooned details, and stylized drops.

These lighting fixtures were typically cast in copper alloys or brass before undergoing electroplating with fine silver, utilizing threaded components and riveted structural arms.

Authentic pieces frequently show base metal wear along raised edges, feature historic registration marks or maker stamps, and utilize period construction techniques such as hand-cut threads and square nuts.

Mount them symmetrically on either side of a central mirror, artwork, or architectural recess on dark-painted walls to accentuate the silver finish and cast ambient candlelight.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft cotton cloth and using a non-abrasive silver polish sparingly to protect the thin electroplated layer from stripping or excessive wear.
