Adrian Purcell Wall Sconces Sconces

About the Item

This Classic pair of Art Deco gunmetal wall sconce's was designed for "Purcell" by Karl Springer. This form comes in a few color and material variations. The gunmetal and clear Glass lit up look like icycles. The clean lines in the Art Deco style make these sconces a jaw dropping feature wherever installed. The craftsmanship and labor that went into these sconces is tremendous. Not only is the center glass acid washed but all the edges are polished unevenly to resemble ice.
