Serpentine Sconces Brass with Three Enameled Aluminum Cones

About the Item

We have available a total of six (or three pair) of these 1960's vine-like wall mounted lamps attributed to the Virden Co. The "vine" and the mounting plate are solid brass. The perforated cones are aluminum. Each cone takes a standard size Edison screw cap bulb up to 60 watts each. There is an on/off switch on each mounting plate. They can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. Each cone is 7 inches high by 4-1/2 inches diameter at the top. We can provide them with cones in polished aluminum finish or paint them in several color options. The original brass-tone finish of the cones is too distressed to be salvageable. Price shown is for a single sconce.
