Condition:
Vintage pair of electric art deco brass wall sconces with wear from age and use. Brass metal shows finish wear and oxidation throughout, including scuffs, scratches, and discoloration. Glass globes are colored in a kind of factory film or dip paint; haze on the colored glass throughout from age and use. No breakage on either the brass fixtures or the glass globes. One of the fixtures is missing it's switch, and both sockets have cracks. Wiring appears to be intact. Original labels on backs have losses. Globes fit OVER the brass cups, not inside, indicating that these may be period replacements. Overall, very good condition but need a few electrical parts; present nicely with a vintage lodge, lounge, or library flavor.
