Pair of 19th Century French Grape and Crystal Wall Sconces
-
Description
A whimsical and elegant pair of 19th-century French wall sconces, crafted from patinated metal and richly adorned with deep amethyst glass grapes and clear crystal leaves. Inspired by grapevines and the bounty of nature, each sconce features graceful, scrolling arms and a vertical composition that culminates in a faceted crystal finial.
Each sconce holds two electrified candle-style lights with wax-drip sleeves, providing both charm and functionality. The contrast of materials—the aged metal, jewel-toned grapes, and sparkling crystal—creates a captivating visual effect, especially when illuminated. These sconces would make a striking addition to a dining room, wine cellar, or entryway, blending French country elegance with a touch of playful luxury.
Good antique condition with minor wear consistent with age; wired for electricity and ready for installation. -
