This set of four, Louis XV four light bronze sconces comes to our collection from France and dates back to the 19th century.

The piece comes together and attaches to the wall through paired, resting acanthus leaves. Lastly an open lotus flower finial rests below. The simplicity and detail is bound to bring a fantastic element of France to any wall.
