A decorative pair of gilt sconces with candleholders, ornately decorated, these are a decorators dream. The sconces are topped by a bow above a cherub with outstretched arms holding the candleholder. they are 22" in height and 12" at the widest. These are being sold as is, one of the bobishes is missing, an easy thing to replace, and part of the bow on one of the sconces is off. These are minor, or i would not be selling them. Things happen even to the finest of antiques and if you don't mind a little imperfection which will be noticable to no one but you, they are a steal

This absolutely fabulous French bronze dore 19th Century vanity mirror is a rare find and is all about luxury. An oval mirror on an elaborate base and flanked by two cherubs, one holding a looking glass, the other holding what looks like a brush. There is a cartouche to the top and garlands of flowers cascade down each side and also decorate the base. Beveled, and dating 1880 this is a treasure. From the top of the center cartouche to the bottom the mirror measures 23" in height. Each side is 20" high and the width is 14". The putti are an elegant and charming touch to this spectatular accessory that will enrich your home for years to come. I was so tempted to keep this one, its elegant and charming, great for your vanity or for that special guest bath.
