Art Nouveau "Art Metal Guild" Fleur-de-lis Sconce - Vintage
 
This item is a lovely vintage Art Nouveau Fleur-de-lis metal sconce with what looks to be it's original frosted glass globe. The globe has an Art Nouveau vine and leaf design on the rim. The back plate has wonderful detail and looks as though it is made of Nickel ? that was guilt at one time, it has some of the gilding left in spots. It has great detail and wonderful flower shaped rivets. An arm is attached to the socket by these rivets. The socket has a brown rotating switch that is marked P&S. It has a cord that runs from the socket over the arm through the back and extends about six inches out. It is a GE brown cord that is a lot newer than the fixture. Embossed into the back of the metal plate is ART METAL GUILD / 32 S. There is one large hole at the top for hanging. This sconce is in working condition and judging from the plug it looks as though the wiring was replaced back in the 60's. This unique sconce will make a wonderful addition to any vintage interior. When you win this one you will not be disappointed.   Dimensions: Approximately: 7 1/4" H (the metal Fleur-de-lis back plate) 9"H with the globe. Condition: Good, this vintage sconce it is in working order. The brass plate socket portion has wear to the finish. The Fleur-de-lis metal back plate has a small portion of the bottom right corner missing (see photographs). The gilding is almost gone, the original metal is exposed, it has a great vintage patina. The arm has some scratches to it. The frosted glass has some small scratches and the rim is a little ruff, but no cracks. The brown switch is worn from use, which is to be expected. It has a few flaws, all normal for a vintage antique fixture. This wonderful Art Nouveau sconce is one of a kind and ready for you to use.   This is a handsome vintage Art Nouveau collectible sconce that would add grace to any vintage style home.
