About the Item

A Magnificent Pair 19th Century French Tole and Porcelain Double light Sconces with Polychrome Porcelain Flowers. This pair of French two-light wall sconces is crafted with tole-mounted porcelain flowers. The sconces feature sculpted metal arms supporting candleholders shaped as stylized flower buds, with faux candle sleeves. The backplates are cast with a ribbon-tied motif, integrating decorative metalwork with hand-painted porcelain elements. Each sconce has two curved metal arms adorned with clusters of porcelain flowers in shades of blue, yellow, pink, and green. The individually sculpted blossoms are applied to the tole framework, which is painted in deep green tones to resemble foliage. The candle cups are modeled as open petals, glazed in lavender and cream hues. French toleware lighting of this type was produced by skilled metalworkers and porcelain artisans, often in collaboration with workshops specializing in decorative lighting. The combination of metal and porcelain reflects traditional French craftsmanship, with porcelain elements likely sourced from Parisian or provincial workshops known for botanical motifs. The sconces retain their original painted and glazed surfaces. France, Circa: 1880
