Pair of Antique French Brass Griffin Wall Sconces with Frosted Glass Rose Shades Bring a captivating sense of history and European drama into your home with this stunning pair of antique single-light wall sconces. The center of each sweeping bracket arm features beautifully detailed, openwork casting of a crowned, winged griffin or dragon creature. Its body is integrated into elegant, open-scroll swirls, making the fixtures look like works of art even before the lights are turned on. Each sconce is fitted with a multi-layered frosted glass shade shaped like a bloomed rose. The solid brass fixtures retain a gorgeous, uncleaned original finish with deep golden tones and authentic dark aging in the recessed areas. This natural patination gives the feathers, scales, and scrollwork exceptional depth and character. The long, vertical wall brackets feature asymmetrical, scrolling foliate patterns in classic Rococo style, adding a grand architectural presence to any wall.Dimensions : wall plates are 12" tall and 4 1/4" wide, about 14" extend from a wall (including glass shade)Excellent antique condition. The brass components are structurally sound with sharp, crisp cast details. The frosted glass rose shades are intact and sit securely in their three-screw gallery mounts. Frosted glass shades may have tiny chips and nicks around a fitter related to age and use. These are authentic vintage/antique fixtures with wiring visible along the scrollwork arms. As with all historic lighting, I highly recommend having them inspected and rewired by a qualified professional electrician prior to installation to ensure compliance with modern electrical safety standards.
IMPORTANT INFO. Dear customers. I used to keep my store in Spain and work from Europe. The high import taxes and new tariffs implemented by the US government made it impossible to continue. Shipping costs to the US have doubled since September 1st. 2025, and the added import tax for US customers means the business from Europe simply doesn't make financial sense anymore. On my recent trip to the US, I brought a batch of inventory with me, packed everything up and stored it in the US. Since I'm now in Spain, I unfortunately cannot access the items to make any changes. This means I can't take new photos, change shipping, or combine anything. They are all pre-packed and ready to go as is. Thanks a lot for your interest and understanding. Sincerely
