This elegant pair of wall sconces features a contrasting design of gilt and wrought iron. Each sconce is composed of an ornate wrought iron backplate with scrolling forms, supporting a gilt metal body. The gilt metalwork displays rococo-inspired acanthine leaves, floral motifs, and scrolled arms. Each sconce has three candle arms, two curving outwards from either side of a central cup, and one additional arm extending upwards from the center. The central cup on each sconce is designed as a deep, basket-like holder, suggesting it may have originally held an additional light source or decorative element. The intricate detailing and combination of materials suggest a Rococo Revival or Baroque Revival style, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. While initially electrified, the sconces currently hold wax candles, suggesting they could be used as decorative candle holders or re-electrified. The backplates are dark, possibly patinated iron, providing a striking contrast to the bright gold finish of the decorative elements.
