How do I hang heavy wall sconces securely?

Wall sconces require sturdy fixings suited to the wall material, especially when constructed from heavy brass, bronze, and cut glass. Weight distribution across the backplate demands appropriate wall anchors to ensure safe mounting. Professional installation is recommended for antique fixtures to protect delicate glass arms and mirror backs from accidental strain during placement.

Were these sconces electrified later?

Many antique wall lights and sconces have undergone conversion to electricity over the decades to suit modern homes. Examining the backplate and candle nozzles reveals whether wiring channels have been added to the original frame. Unconverted pieces retain their original candle sockets and drip pans designed strictly for wax illumination.

What is a girandole mirror?

A girandole is a wall mirror featuring one or more candle arms branching out from the lower frame or base. The combination of reflective glass and protruding candles served to multiply the available light in dark rooms. These pieces function as both decorative mirrors and operational wall lighting.

How do I clean antique glass and crystal?

Cleaning requires removing dust with a soft brush and wiping glass components with a damp cloth. Harsh chemical cleaners must be avoided to protect aged gilt finishes, silver plating, and delicate metal joins. Detachable drops and lustres can be washed individually in mild soapy water before being carefully dried and rehung.
