Pair of Charles I Style Sconces, England circa 1850
10.75" h x 12.5" w x 10" d
A handsome pair of wall sconces in the Charles I style, capturing the transitional spirit of 17th century English design with their bold presence and refined detailing. The scrolling arms and structured backplates reflect the sturdy yet increasingly poetic character that defined domestic metalwork during this influential period of British craftsmanship.
Circa 1850, these Victorian period pieces were crafted as part of a revival movement that celebrated the formal grandeur and historicism of the earlier Stuart era.
Hand-finished in brass with a warm, naturally aged patina and featuring skillfully cast scrollwork. Rooted in the Baroque tradition, these sconces connect the formal elegance of 17th century design with the intricate craftsmanship and eclectic historical appreciation of the Victorian age.
