(A) I've got a set of four (only one shown) of these classically-shaped sconces with the pine-cone motif, with silvered mounts, about 12 inches tall. $2100 each pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

 

(B) Two of these geometric wonders just tumbled into my greedy hands. They're nickel-plated brass and in their original finish, which is a near-miracle, and about 13 inches high, four wide (at the widest point of the shade, the metal is only 2 3/4 wide) and they project 8 inches.

Ol' "geometric wonders" are spoken for by KEVIN! SOLD!!

(C) A sweet pair of diminutive (they're about 10 inches long) Modernist sconces...

"Sweet Moderne" are alive and well at Helene's in NYC... SOLD!!

(D) Fresh off the boat and out of the container, these Modernist French sconces "say it all!" They're made of solid brass, and the condition of the chrome plating is excellent. That's a chromed tube standing vertically in the center. These measure 13 wide, 10 high, and the original chrome finish is in excellent condition! What a woeful picture! Ask and I'll send you a better one (how could I miss?). $1600 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(E) A most handsome and extremely rare pair of signed Degue sconces, which measure about 12 high by 5 1/2 wide. The mounts are plated in their original nickel finish. $1900 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(F) What a cute little pair of Modernist sconces from La Belle France! The swivels between the arm and the shade give them an excellent versatility. The chrome's in super condition. The shade opening measures about five inches. There are several holes in the tiny backplates, that's how they affix to the wall. They project 9 inches from the wall, and the diameter of the shade is 4 1/2 inches. $950 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(G) These glass rod sconces are undoubtedly by Petitot, in fact I've seen another identical pair attributed to the great designer. They're about a foot tall, in near-mint condition, with their original two-tone copper patina. $1400 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

  

(H) If memory serves me correctly (ha-ha), I have about four of these... forties vintage, very bold and powerful design... luminous opalescent shades! They're freshly nickle-plated, solid brass. $1900 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

Or, perhaps you prefer these "icicle" shades, wonderfully opalescent and deep, to hid the bulb in its entirety. The metal, shown here in brass, can redone in polished or brushed nickel, or chrome. $1700 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

 

(I) I've got four of these super high quality, heavy solid brass French sconces with opalescent shades from the late 30's or so. I've already plated two in nickel, as you see it here -- what beauties! The shade is over eight inches in diameter, with rich colors including fiery golds in the thicker parts of the glass when the light is on. This sconce comes out about 11 inches from the wall, and is about 7 inches top-to-bottom. $1900 the pair. (e-mail Jack to start the conversation)

(J) Just acquired, a full set of SIX French wrought iron sconces with very pleasing design elements such as the wonderful twist on the bottom of the candle-holder. These project eight inches and are about three inches wide. The height, with the candle as shown (it could be cut down some, and/or a narrower candle could be employed), is about 11 inches. Obviously you'd have the choice of using a bare flame-type bulb or a clamp-on shade. In any case these are particularly fetching, with a good deep brown patina! $1200 the set of six.
