About the Item

A great pair of vintage gilt metal sconces from Italy with cattails and grass in a antique gold finish. According to Victorian tradition, in the "language of flowers," cattails are a symbol of peace and prosperity. The presentation of a cattail stalk as a gift served as an offering of peace in hopes of ending a conflict. This is a nice vintage pair of sconces that have been rewired and in good working condition.
