REQUEST INFORMATION
A pair of very finely chased and gilded bronze wall sconces from the Louis XVI period. They feature three light arms, adorned with goat heads surmounted by pine cones. The very wide, circular lampshades are decorated along their edges with geometric friezes, godrons, and antique-style moldings. The bases, shaped like flared Medici vases, are carved with rising water leaves.
A very beautiful design attributed to the Ornemanist artist Jean-Charles DELAFOSSE (1734–1789).
