A highly decorative and matching pair of hand-forged wrought iron wall sconces in the shape of heraldic, crowned lions in a rampant pose. The dimensions are approximate. European, probably German/Alpine, 20th century. Made of flat forged iron with carved silhouettes, forged tails and manes, and original integrated drip trays with pins.
The sconces form a mirrored pair, originally intended for placement on either side of a fireplace, doorway, or wall. Beautifully crafted with a lovely, aged patina.
In good antique condition, with signs of wear and light oxidation commensurate with age. Unrestored. Provenance: via an international antique dealer (label: P&S International Trading Co., Amsterdam) and ultimately in a private collection.
A powerful statement piece for a classic, historical, or eclectic interior. #exclusive #antique #antik #antiquité #wrought iron #iron #lions #dutchantique #dutch #historic #special #rare #veryrare #extremelyrare #rareantique #rarefind #oneofakind #rarehistory #rare #art #antiqueart #antiqueart #antiquecandlestick #wroughtirondecoration #wroughtiron #lion #lioncandlestickholder #lioncandle #lioncandlestickholder
