Item:135001008612ANTIQUE FRENCH CANDLE SCONCES PAIR BRONZE ORMOLU ROCOCO LOUIS XVI STYLE 1900s. A pair of antique French, quality bronze ormolu wall sconces. Twin armed , rococo acanthus leaf motif. Louis XVI in style dating back to the early1900s. A companion, larger single sconce available in a separate listing. These high-quality, antique French, bronze ormolu wall sconces, something of a decorator's piece, were sourced from a top French specialist dealer , and dates to the fin de s iècle , late 19th/early 20th c. The Rococo, late Baroque design harks back to the decadent days of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette in France, and Casanova in Venice towards the end of the18th c. They take their inspiration from the flowing floral and acanthus leaf Rococo motifs and scrolling curves much favoured by the gilded furniture makers of the period. One of these gilded French sconces is a left-bias example. i.e. the scrolling left arm is higher than the right. The other is right-bias . Each stepped leaf clad arm emerges from the opposite sides of a leaf backplate, and is topped with a leaf bobeche drip pan and leaf candle sconce. Faded original gilded patination. Original light fittings and old wiring still attached, but easily unscrewed for use with candles. Not PAT tested so sold as antique candle sconces with previous wiring still attached, ready to be rewired. Please look carefully at the images as they form part of the description.
