The combination of dark patinated metal and clear glass crystals creates a beautifully balanced decorative contrast. The crystal detailing and classic French styling make the m suitable for both traditional and eclectic décor. Perfect for introducing antique glamour and ambient warmth to interiors such as hallways, bedrooms, or formal sitting rooms. Their rewired status ensures they are functional as well as decorative. Heritage, Craftsmanship & Historical Note:- Dating from around 1930, these beautifully designed French wall lights reflect the transitional aesthetic between late Art Nouveau and early Art Deco style. Their scrolled arms, stylised acanthus leaves, and delicate glass droplets evoke the restrained luxury of inter-war French interiors, where craftsmanship remained at the heart of design. Each fitting has been sensitively rewired for modern use, while retaining its authentic surface patina and period character. The wrought-metal frames, enriched with aged texture, serve as elegant supports for the faceted and teardrop-shaped crystals that softly refract the light. Despite minor historic losses to the crystals, the overall effect remains beautifully balanced and atmospheric (we can put you in contact with a company that supply spare parts) Explore Every Facet:- Viewed closely, the lights reveal the care and artistry of their making: hand-curved ironwork with fluid flourishes, flower-head fittings holding each crystal droplet, and gentle signs of age that speak to their authenticity. When lit, the interplay between the dark metal and shimmering glass creates an evocative glow - equally enchanting in daylight or candlelight. The crystals, in mixed cuts of pendeloque and teardrop form, add dimension and a quiet glamour that enhances the silhouette of the scrolling frame. Our images form an essential part of the condition report for complete purchasing confidence, ensuring a true visual record of its character and craftsmanship.  Styling Suggestions:- This pair would bring elegance and warmth to a hallway, sitting room, or bedroom, working equally well in classical, rustic-French, or eclectic interiors. Their scale makes them ideal companions to gilt mirrors or painted furniture, where the subtle sparkle of the crystals catches and diffuses the surrounding light. Mounted in pairs or flanking an artwork, they introduce an enduring sense of romance and craftsmanship.
