(A) Minimalist chromed mounts hold festively adorned French glass shades on these classic Art Deco sconces from the 20's probably by Robert. They're about 9 1/2 inches high and 8 inches wide. $1550 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(B) I've got a set of four of these unsigned des Hanots sconces, just refinished in a jewelry-like brushed nickel. With 13 inches of height and 10 of width, they command a substantial presence. $2300 each pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(C) A single Muller (signed) wall sconce, in brushed nickel wrought iron. It's 9 inches wide and 5 high, ready to illuminate that special niche of yours! $1075. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(D) These sconces by the Société d'Exploitation des Verreries de la Brie (S.E.V.B.) are MIND-BOGGLING!!! They're no less than 14 inches tall and 9 wide, and the glass has very sharp definition. Best I've ever had, I do believe! $2600 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(E) One of a matching pair of alabaster-shaded gilt bronze high style French wall sconces. They measure 20" tall, 12 wide (at the widest point of the shades) and they project about 6 inches from the wall. $4900 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(G) Three of these "arts and crafts" sconces just breezed in through the door. Aren't they suitable for framing?! Soft bronze patina over solid brass, silky iridescent acid-etched shades. They swivel, too! The three are identical, and measure about seven inches high; they project 10 inches from the wall. I'd place these in the neighborhood of a hundred years old: real antiques!!! $1195 for all three. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(H) A very agreeable wall sconce by Schneider, on the order of 7 inches wide, about 13 or 14 high. What an elegant concept -- doesn't everything French eventually come down to the basket motif? $1800. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(I) Just a "little something or other" from Daum... (unsigned but guaranteed), quite large at about 24 inches wide, 11 high, 8 deep. $2500 (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(J) A freshly brushed nickel wall sconce, all by its lonesome in this world and gushing tears about that, as you can see. It's 12 wide by 9 high. $1050. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(K) A pair of these diminutive French wall sconces awaits you. They're just 8 1/2 high and just over three inches wide (at the widest point of the shade). $1400 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(L) This single Degue wall sconce has been nickel-plated since this photo and it's just a knock-out! It's about 13 wide, 5 1/2 high. $1150. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(M) Either of these geometric beauties is about 14 high and 6 wide. $850 apiece. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(P) Another winner by SEVB, 9 1/2 high by 8 1/2 wide. $675. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(R) Here's another contender for "the best" accolade. These streamlined Modernist sconces (there is a pair) are undoubtedly by the world-renowned French lighting designer Petitot. Refinished in brushed nickel, they're about 14 inches wide, 3 1/2 high and they project about seven inches from the wall. Who could resist? $2100 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(S) Here's something unusual -- one of a pair of wrought iron French Art Deco wall sconces with mica inserts! Almost a hybrid Art Deco/Arts and Crafts look, no? Certainly, above all, a warm and inviting look, perfect for your dining room, or a bedroom... The bottom has a mica insert too, just out of view in this photo. With ample size and good proportions, at 12 wide, five tall and projecting almost six inches. The patina, as you can see, is lustrous and rich. $1575 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(T) Just think how sleek these are going to look when they're nickel-plated! I have a set of four, and they're about 11 inches top-to-bottom. $1100 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(U) I've got a pair of these lovely all-porcelain bathroom sconces. Or, perhaps they'd be just the thing for the maid's room? $875 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(V) Cute, but even cuter once they're plated in brushed nickel, wouldn't you agree? Call me up and make me do it!!! $575 as they are, $775 replated. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)
