Late 1920s Vintage Dogs Head 2 bulb Sconces

About the Item

Vintage 1930s cast iron wall sconces, made by Virden. Captivating design with elements of Spanish Revival, Arts & Crafts, Tudor, and Craftsman all blended together very nicely. Needless to say these would fit right at home in any interior with the aforementioned decorating scheme. The cast hammered finish and whimsical figure head design make them great for an Arts & Crafts, Tudor, or Bungalow interior. Would look great on each side of a river rock fireplace. Refinished to highlight the wonderful and playful design and to match one of Virden's colors of the period. These were shown in a 1934 Sears catalog, along with matching chandeliers, which we also have available. Can be refinished in an oil rubbed bronze look at no additional charge. Measures: Height: 10 inch Width: 11 1/4 Projection: 3 7/8 inches Rewired to UL standards including code required ground switch.
