Pair Of 19th-Century Italian Wrought Iron And Gilded Wood Three-Light Wall Sconces

This exquisite pair of three-light wall sconces, crafted from wrought iron with gilded and painted wood elements, embodies the refined elegance of 19th-century Italian design. Originating from a distinguished residence on the shores of Lake Como, their graceful curves and finely detailed floral motifs reflect the artistry and decorative richness of the period. Originally mounted on wood paneling, as indicated by the hooks on the reverse, they retain their original structure and presence. The gilded surfaces show gentle, time-earned wear, with softened edges and areas of loss that reveal the warm tones beneath—adding a romantic, storied patina that enhances their visual depth and atmosphere.

These sconces offer a sophisticated focal point in a range of interiors, whether flanking a mirror in an entryway, casting a warm glow over a dining room sideboard, or framing a fireplace in a sitting room. Their weathered gilt finish adds a layer of texture and historical charm that complements both richly layered, traditional spaces and more restrained, modern settings.
