Description
The original old 1940s-1950s cloth wire is frayed so this light should probably be rewired….The colored hanging light itself is solid brass….not plated. The part that hangs on the wall could be a heavy brass plate or gold gilt.
This is a fancy Art Deco to mid century vintage, hand cast, solid brass wall sconce/light with its large original hanging pendant light. It is very ornate and has its old original colored hard plastic inserts which you may or may not want to change to flat glass. It has its old original age patina and a lot of fancy open work throughout. The bulk of the fixture is solid brass; not plated. Overall excellent condition. The only place with some age wear is on the small flat center panels which are are made of brass over metal. See photos. No dents or dings or tears. Never repaired or altered in any way. Completely original as found in local estate many decades ago. All original old patina intact. Behind the panels are its older original 1950s deep colored hard plastic inserts that light up beautifully once it is rewired. It looks lovely when it’s lit up. Size measurements are 13 1/2″ tall from the top to the bottom point, North to South. Width across the center of hanging light is 5 1/2″ across East to West. This is a lovely hanging pendant light that works well in room or foyer or hallway.
