Description
Design & Inspiration
This two-arm brass wall sconce is a faithful tribute to the exuberant spirit of the Rococo period — the golden age of French decorative arts that flourished under Louis XV. From its fleur-de-lis crown rising above an acanthus palmette to the boldly scrolling C-curves that frame its openwork backplate, every element of this piece speaks the language of 18th-century Parisian salons. The ivory candle sleeves, shaped like unfurling acanthus leaves, complete the theatrical drama that defines this era's lighting vocabulary.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Cast entirely in solid brass, this wall sconce is handcrafted by skilled Egyptian artisans who work in the centuries-old tradition of European metalwork. The backplate is an intricate open-lattice composition of layered rocaille scrolls, rose cartouches, and wing-like foliate elements — each one individually cast and assembled with precision. The relief detailing across the candle arms, acanthus clusters, and floral rosettes reveals a level of depth and crispness that only hand-finished brass casting can achieve. The warm, burnished finish catches ambient light and gives the piece its characteristic luminous presence on any wall.
Dimensions & Details
Weighing 4 kg, this sconce carries the satisfying visual weight appropriate to its grand Rococo pedigree. It accommodates two E14 candle-base bulbs (up to 40W each), making it suitable for warm, atmospheric lighting in formal or decorative settings. The piece is wall-mounted and connects to a standard wall switch. Its portrait orientation and vertical composition make it ideal for flanking a mirror, console, or fireplace — or as a pair framing a doorway in a reception hall.
Handcrafted in Egypt
At Brass & Wood, every piece is produced in Egypt by master craftsmen who have inherited the art of classical European metalwork through generations of dedicated practice. This sconce is not merely a lighting fixture — it is a hand-finished sculptural object that transforms any wall into a statement of refined taste. Each unit is individually inspected for casting quality, finish evenness, and structural integrity before leaving our workshop. Customization in finish color is available to suit your interior palette.
