A trio of copper wall appliques transformed from mid‑19th‑century Gloria Cards, dating to ca. 1850–1900, in Baroque‑inspired decorative style.
Description from the seller
Three Antique Gloria Cards Transformed into Copper Wall Sconces
Refined ensemble composed of three antique mid-19th-century Gloria Cards, subsequently transformed into elegant wall sconces. Made in repousé and shaped copper, they feature rich decoration with scrolls, foliate motifs and baroque-style ornamental finials.
Each element retains at its center a shaped mirror, framed by a finely worked structure that enhances the whole with a special decorative effect. The bottom part has two lamp-holder arms, added during the transformation, which make these objects ideal as scenographic light points for classic interiors, historic homes, or antique collections.
The patina of time and natural signs of use contribute to the authentic charm of these pieces, evidence of 19th-century decorative art and the repurposing of ancient liturgical furnishings in an ornamental key.
