Large French 19th Century Bronze Sconce

This grand sized French bronze sconce features a single light with a satin finished globe in the shape of a flame, and dates back to the 19th century. The piece is quite large, almost three feet tall and nearly two and a half feet deep. The partially fluted arm extends from a bulb of acanthus leaves, with more leaves outreaching from the arm and the immaculately balanced scroll work. A final detailed fleurette sits in the middle of the scroll work adding to this balance and helping the piece feel light even with its grandiose and stately presence.
