Single Large Early 20th Century French Louis XV Style Bronze Wall Sconce
About the Item
This exquisite early 20th-century French sconce, exemplifying the Louis XV style, is meticulously crafted from bronze. It features five elegantly curved candelabra arms, each designed to hold faux candlestick lights. The sconce is adorned with intricate details typical of Rococo design, including ribbon motifs, rocaille forms, and floral as well as foliate embellishments.
The Louis XV style, named after the long-reigning French monarch, evolved from the preceding Regence style, placing a greater emphasis on movement and fluidity in form. Diverging from classical and antique precedents, this era introduced a wholly original ornamental design philosophy, the Rococo, characterized by its intricate and sinuous lines.
This sconce constitutes a sophisticated addition to any space, embodying both elegance and a playful intricacy.
