Presented for your consideration is this handsome vintage wall sconce. I believe it was made in England likely in the first quarter of the twentieth century. The cast brass (?) fixture features a finely detailed lion's head. The beast holds a ring that supports the beautiful art glass shade. It is canary opalescent in a stripe pattern. The glass has an intense uranium glow under a black light. My thought is that the maker was John Walsh Walsh. The sconce measures 14" long overall and 5 1/4" across. The shade is about 5" long and 4" across. There are no markings. This piece is in very good estate condition with no damage, wear or restoration found. Obviously it needs to be re-wired for use. This sconce should be welcome in your home or collection! The cost of U.S. insured shipping and proper packing varies with your postal zone--see estimate above. If the estimate is high I'll immediately refund your account.
