"Pair Of Gilt Bronze Wall Sconces – Empire Style – Early 19th Century"
Elegant pair of three-armed wall sconces in chased and gilded bronze, finely decorated with neoclassical motifs such as palmettes, acanthus leaves, and stylized torches. The central backsplash is topped with a stylized feather motif in relief, emphasizing the verticality of the ensemble, while the arched arms accommodate three decorated bobèches. These sconces clearly reflect the imperial aesthetic associated with the period of Napoleon I, combining symmetry, classical rigor, and antique ornamentation.
