Description from the seller

Wall sconce with a mirror made in brass, Neobaroque style - Late 19th century. The design is very rich in mythological and "grotesque" elements (a decorative style that blends human, vegetal, and animal forms).

The Upper Mascara? Upper mascarón is crowned with acanthus leaves or vines.

On the edges of the mirror you can see chimeras or sea dragons intertwined with foliage.

Below the mirror, where the arms originate, there is another smaller face flanked by what appear to be bat or dragon wings, a typical touch of the Gothic-Renaissance style.

The piece retains a very attractive dark patina, with three candle arms. It also retains antique glass with signs of plating wear.

Please pay special attention to the photographs as they form part of the description.

Dimensions: 55 cm high x 24 cm wide x 15.5 cm deep.

Weight: 2.53 Kg.
