Pair of Sconce-Style Molten Wax Candle Appliques

Pair of Wall Lights in Dripping Candle Style

Bronze and gilt brass with engraved glass globes



Important pair of decorative wall-mounted appliques evoking large candle torchères.

Each applique features a cylindrical shaft imitating a candle covered in dripping wax, mounted on a structure in bronze and gilt brass.

The upper section is crowned by a spherical globe in satin-finish glass engraved with floral motifs, diffusing a soft and warm light.

The highly realistic dripping wax decoration lends the ensemble a theatrical character reminiscent of Renaissance-style lighting or château interiors.

The circular wall backplates and turned elements in gilt metal bring elegance and refinement to this pair of large decorative wall lights.

Condition

Good overall presentational condition and apparently in working order.

Some traces of use and minor wear to the patina consistent with age.

Globes in good condition as visible in the photographs.
