Stunning pair of Renaissance-style wall sconces in chiselled and gilded bronze with three light arms from the mid-19th century. Bevelled mirror frame topped with a leafy bearded mask evoking the god Sylvanus, a symbolic figure associated with nature and fertility. Ornamental relief floral and leafy motifs incorporating two stylized marine chimeras on either side. The solid bronze reverse reveals the antiquity of the assembly. Undeniable elegance. Very beautiful proportions. Maximum dimensions: Height 48.3 x 26.5 x depth 17 cm. Total weight of the set: 5553 grams. Old electrification. I would only note wear on the artificial candles. Ultra-secure shipping worldwide. Type: Sconce. Period: 19th century and earlier. Subtype: Indoor. Material: Bronze. Style: Renaissance.
