Description from the seller

Pair of Vintage Louis XV / Rococo Style Solid Brass Wall Sconces - 2-Light (Mid-20th Century)

An elegant and highly decorative pair of vintage French-style wall sconces (2 pieces), dating back to the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1960s).
Crafted from high-quality solid brass, these sconces feature classic Rococo / Rocaille asymmetric scrollwork, beautifully adorned with stylized acanthus leaves and shell-like candle cups.

Technical Details & Condition:
- Material: Solid brass (heavy and well-cast, displaying a warm authentic patina).
- Sockets: 2 light sources per sconce, matching small Edison screw bulbs (E14). Covered with decorative cream-colored candle sleeves that mimic melting wax.
- Electricity: The wiring has been modernized/rewired for safety with standard blue and brown plastic-insulated cables (including a ground wire). The system is fully functional and ready to be installed directly onto the wall.
- Condition: In very good vintage condition. The brass shows minor signs of age and light oxidation which enhances its antique character. No cracks, breaks, or structural damage. Two twisted flame-style bulbs are included as shown in the photos.

Approximate Dimensions:
- Height (including bulb/sleeve): 23 cm
- Width (total span across the arms): 17.5 cm
- Depth (distance from the wall): 7.5 cm

This charming pair will add a timeless touch of classic European elegance to any interior space, from hallways to dining areas.

The product will be professionally packed and sent safely to your address by local post.
