Description

I’m very pleased to offer a PAIR 1920s 2-arm sconces by the famous LIGHTOLIER company of New York!

This listing is for TWO matching fixtures.

ABOUT LIGHTOLIER
Beginning in the 1920s, and for many decades thereafter, the Lightolier Company (extant today of course) made some of the very finest fixtures. Their designs were always simply dazzling, and the quality was the very very very best. When you restore vintage lights such as I do, these aspects are so obvious they tend to jump out. It’s always a particular pleasure restoring a Lightolier!

And I have more!

  • I have another such sconce, but instead of having glass bobeches (the cups under the candles), it has brass bobeches, and does not have glass drops.
  • I have a sixth sconce, but this has no bobeches, and no glass drops. But, if you need a sixth sconce I can figure something out regarding the missing bobeches.
  • In another listing I have four silver-plated sconces. These are from the same set, but do not have glass bobeches or glass drops.

The sconces don’t mount in a typical way. The have a bar in the back that clips over a screw. It will help enormously if you let me know what conditions you have with regard to electrical boxes, and I will supply what is needed to hang the sconces.

The sconces are stamped After Sunset, a line marketed by Lightolier in the 1920s.

This set is ideal for any traditionally-styled home, and from any period. Of course, the sconces might also be an exciting counterpoint in a modernist interior!

Wholly restored and with new wiring, this pair is ready to hang, and comes with all the mounting hardware needed!
