Empire - Scissor lamp - Gilt bronze

Antique Empire-Style Gilded Bronze Wall Sconce - FBAI, Italy An imposing antique wall sconce in gilded bronze, manufactured by the Italian foundry FBAI and inspired by the grandeur of the Empire style. The piece features substantial bronze construction, finely modelled ornamental details and a sculptural silhouette characteristic of classical European decorative lighting. Its generous proportions and architectural presence evoke the formal interiors of historic European residences, grand salons and Parisian hôtels particuliers.

With its considerable visual weight and elegant classical character, this wall sconce is particularly suited to traditional interiors, historic properties and eclectic settings combining antique furnishings with architectural decorative elements. It can be displayed as a standalone statement piece or incorporated into a symmetrical arrangement. **Details** * Manufacturer: FBAI, Italy * Style: Empire * Material: Gilded bronze * Dimensions: 50 × 24 × 28 cm (height × width × depth) * Condition: Fully functional * Glass: None A distinctive decorative lighting piece for collectors of antique bronze, classical European design and architectural lighting.
