Seller: lacewing-provencal ✉️ (143) 100%, Location: Hampton, GB, Ships to: GB & many other countries, Item: 134996184893 ANTIQUE FRENCH CANDLE SCONCE BRONZE ORMOLU ROCOCO LOUIS XVI STYLE 1900s. A single, antique French, quality bronze ormolu wall sconce. Twin armed , rococo  acanthus leaf motif.   Louis XVI in style dating back to the early1900s.  A companion, smaller pair available in a separate listing. This high-quality, antique French, bronze ormolu wall sconce,  something of a decorator's piece, was 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. This gilded French sconce is a left-bias example. i.e. the scrolling left arm is higher than the right. 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.
