Pair Porcelier Art Deco-MCM Porcelain Sconces, Glass Shades, Excellent, Restored

  
Excellent Art Deco-MCM Porcelain Sconces by Porcelier, Opal Glass Shades, Restored. These porcelain sconces were manufactured by Porcelier sometime between 1928 and 1953, the lifetime of the company, and they are suitable for both art deco and MCM motifs. The sconces have an off-white background with silver accents. The silver is in very good condition with very few losses. Metallic accents often show losses because they were applied after the last firing and they are above the glaze rather than under it, rendering them more vulnerable to abrasion losses than the rainbow colors which lie under the glaze. The fixtures have opal glass shades, and both shades and sconces are in good condition and are ready to hang on your wall. One fixture has a faint hairline running through it, but it is unobtrusive and should not cause any problems (see photo 7). We have carefully cleaned each of the sconces and removed the old wall paint and household dirt from the sides and backs. Each fixture has a bulb socket with a built in pull chain switch which we rewired. We also disassembled the switches, cleaned and polished the parts, lubed them, and put them back together. They work perfectly and should be good for decades into the future. We have tested everything and everything is guaranteed to work correctly. The sale includes the correct mounting hardware (mounting nuts, threaded nipples, crossbars). Where they meet the wall, project 5 from the wall with shade in place. Measure 8-1/4 high from top of shade to tip of pull-chain knob. Use standard base bulbs (not included).

Guaranteed to perform correctly and to be as described. We have more porcelain sconces in our other listings and lots of other porcelain ceiling fixtures for sale, so please check out our lighting store.
