Description
This is a great looking pair of neoclassical style sconces with a streamlined urn shape in the center and Greek Key designs where the arms meet the urn. The sconces were once electrified, they are not now but they can certainly be wired again and still have the switch, but will work well as decorative or candle sconces indoor or out.
They have been repainted and there are places where the paint is smudged and streaky and there is some paint loss but they are useable as is or could be redone to your liking.
The sconces are signed Empire Patent Pending on the back (It is hard to read.) and the backplate is 12 inches high and the width to the outside of the bobeches is about 7 1/4 inches and the depth is about 4 inches.
