Pair of Large Two-Light Gilt Bronze Wall Sconces in Louis XVI Style, Circa 1900

This pair of Louis XVI–style wall sconces, each with two lights and measuring 47 cm in width, was made in France around 1900. Crafted in gilt bronze and brown-patinated bronze, they exemplify the quality and refinement of French decorative bronzework from the early 20th century.

The design, characteristic of the Louis XVI style, emphasizes elegance and restraint, while also recalling the delicate curves and ornamental details associated with the Louis XV tradition, such as acanthus leaves and rocaille motifs. The combination of gilt bronze and patinated bronze creates a subtle contrast that enhances both the clarity of the details and the purity of the lines.

These sconces have been recently rewired and are ready for installation. Perfect for lighting an entrance hall, living room, or dining room, they bring a touch of classical distinction and timeless refinement to any elegant interior.
