Baroque Rococo Double-Arm Wall Sconce with Crimson Backplate, Crystal Drops & Cream Shades

Design & Inspiration

Where candlelight once illuminated the gilded salons of Versailles and the grand reception rooms of European noble houses, the Baroque Rococo Double-Arm Wall Sconce now casts its warm, ceremonial glow in your home. Inspired by the opulent wall lighting of the Louis XV court — where light was theater and every fixture a declaration of status — this piece faithfully reproduces the sculptural drama and chromatic richness that defined an era. The deep crimson backplate, shaped in a classic cartouche silhouette, provides a sumptuous stage against which water-gilded brass framework performs its elaborate dance of acanthus scrolls and rocaille curves.

Materials & Craftsmanship

The structural backplate is crafted from solid wood finished in a rich crimson lacquer, providing both visual depth and a warm contrast to the gilded metalwork. The framework — comprising two gracefully curved candle arms, foliate acanthus scrollwork, and a crowning shell-form finial — is cast in solid brass and finished to your chosen metal tone. Each scroll terminus and junction is hand-chased, ensuring crisp, three-dimensional relief that catches light from every angle. Suspended from the lower register, hand-cut faceted crystal drops catch and refract ambient light, creating the signature prismatic shimmer associated with the finest European Rococo chandeliers and wall fixtures. The twin cream fabric shades, rendered in a gathered drum silhouette, soften the candle-form E14 bulb holders and lend the piece its characteristic warmth without diminishing the ornamental spectacle below.

Dimensions & Details

This double-arm wall sconce accommodates two E14 candle-base bulbs, each rated up to 40W, and is wired for standard 220V installations. The cream fabric shade measures approximately 10 cm in diameter, scaled to maintain visual balance with the overall composition. The piece weighs 4 kg and requires minimal assembly upon installation. Its portrait orientation — taller than wide — makes it ideally proportioned for placement on either side of a mirror, console table, or fireplace mantel, as well as flanking a hallway entrance or formal dining room doorway.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every Brass & Wood wall sconce is individually handcrafted in Egypt by artisans trained in the traditions of European classical furniture and decorative arts. The gilding process, the crystal selection, the lacquering of the backplate, and the final assembly are all performed by hand, ensuring that no two pieces are entirely identical — each carries the subtle mark of its maker. As part of our commitment to living craftsmanship, all pieces can be customized in metal finish, shade color, and backplate tone to suit your specific interior scheme. Delivery is typically completed within 30–45 days of order confirmation.
