Pair of French Louis XVI-style corner wall sconces in alloy, dating from the 20th century.
Description from the seller
Pair of wall-mounted corner sconces in gilded bronze, Louis XVI style, substantial
French work, circa 1920
Superb pair of wall-mounted corner sconces in Louis XVI style, in solid gilded bronze (heavy, thick pieces, see photos with a ruler for scale). solid pieces and massive
They feature an elegant decoration of acanthus leaves and volutes, with a slender central shaft. The sockets are in ivory porcelain/bakelite. The gilding shows an authentic patina that highlights the relief of the motifs and gives them a lot of character.
Condition and important details (TO BE READ):
· For purists and collectors: These sconces have retained their original wiring, which is in perfect condition. They have been tested and illuminate perfectly. This is an ideal piece for a collection or a vintage-style interior.
· For daily use (Safety): Although the original wiring is functional, it does not meet current safety standards. Rewiring by a professional is strongly recommended if you wish to install them permanently.
· Disclaimer: The lot is sold strictly as is. As a private seller, I decline any responsibility regarding the use of the original wiring (risk of short circuit, fire, etc.). The buyer assumes full responsibility for the use of these luminaires.
· The fixing parts (screws, nuts) are visible in the photos
