About the Item
Pair of extremely unique Antique French Neoclassical style figural wall sconces. This rare pair of Dog sconces capture the refined elegance and symbolic gravitas of fine French decorative arts. Crafted in patinated and gilt bronze, each sconce features a finely modeled recumbent hound—evocative of the Greyhound or Whippet—resting regally atop a rectangular plinth adorned with a gilt Greek key frieze. The dogs, rendered in a rich dark patina, wear delicate gilded collars that offer a touch of aristocratic charm and classical reverence.
From the central pedestal, two cylindrical candle arms extend in perfect symmetry, terminating in gilt bronze bobeches with faux wax candle sleeves, subtly recalling the restrained opulence of Empire-style lighting. The rectilinear base, accented in matte black and gold, harmonizes with the composition’s architectural symmetry while offering visual contrast to the svelte, sculptural figures above.
Elegant and sculptural, this pair exemplifies the Neoclassical fascination with antiquity and form, embodying both decorative grace and symbolic fidelity—ideal for a study, grand entryway, or classically inspired interior. Whether mounted in a formal salon or flanking a grand mirror, they serve not only as functional lighting but as objets d’art of storied refinement.
