AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Majestic pair of wall sconces from 19th-century France, Paris foundry of the highest quality!!

This pair is rare and sublime in its execution…

Condition: The surface has partially suffered wear… all in all, however, a very powerful impression in presentation… the existing fire-gilding is bright and reveals its noble side (see photos)!
