This auction is for a delightful Arts & Crafts, Craftsman, Storybook copper entry or porch sconce. It is copper down to the screws- not brass. Of course, the shade and the porcelain socket are not copper. This comes with the original amethyst purple lavender glass shade, which is frosted. I am guessing that this fixture is about 80-90 years old. (At least, I was told that by the previous owner.) Wiring is original cloth covered and old, so I would rewire this. Takes a standard size light bulb. Measures 10" tall (classic pointed Craftsman styled shade), 5 1/2" wide and extends from the wall about 8". Bottom mouth opens about 3 1/4" . Has been painted with layers of black paint, with areas worn away to expose the rich brown of the copper. If you were careful, I think you could strip away the paint and still leave the patina of the copper. Heavy and well-constructed! This piece is wonderful and would add lots of warm curb appeal to any home. Simply gorgeous and uncommonly designed!! Most of my items are vintage or antique and acquired from several different venues. Most are not perfect, but I try and describe them as accurately as possible. When in doubt, ask questions as items are sold "as is".Not responsible for loss or damage to item once it leaves my care, BUT I will assist in every way possible. Claim will be between the buyer
