ANTIQUE Early 1900’sPAIR of Brass Sconces – Orig Satin Milk Glass Shades
A pair of allbrass sconces from about 1915. They have signed Hubbell fitters and sockets. I stripped off 100 years of paint splatter and gunk and got down the raw brass. I wiped them very lightly with a patina solutionand wiped off immediately.
All brasspieces are in good shape, and I can see only a couple of miniscule dimples in the back plates. The paddle turn-key socketsare in excellent working order and the fixtures have been rewired. I have replaced therusted inner pipes with a new fully threaded pipes and am including 2 modern brackets that will make them veryeasy to install. The bells/back plates are about 5 inches in diameter so theywill easily cover a modern, round electrical box.
The shades are milk glass with a satin finish, and are both in excellentcondition with no chips, cracks, or even any of the typical fitternicks. The have a wonderful shape and are craftsman or Arts and Crafts eradesign. They look fantastic when lit with Edison bulbs.
The bestpart about these is that they are ready to go; all you have to do is mountthem.
Shades: Standard 2 ¼ inch fitter, 4 3/4 inches tall
Back plate: 5 inches in diameter
