One of the rarest of all the slip shade sconces.  Predates almost all other fixtures of this genre.  Both shades in excellent condition with minor roughness along the mold line at the top of one of the shades.  Refinished in antique gold to match original finish.  (More pictures will be posted tomorrow 6/21) Height: 12 inchesWidth: 8 inchesProijection: 5 1/2 Inches  Rewired using UL listed parts, including code required ground wire attached to fixture body (attaching ground wire to only mounting bracket does not satisfy code).  Comes with standard mounting bracket and hardware so they can be installed in minutes.  A perfect fit for almost any style vintage home: Bungalow, Prarie School, Arts & Crafts, Spanish Revival, Craftsman, Traditional, Storybook, Tudor, etc. When choosing fixtures on ebay be sure to know what you are getting.  Choose only fixtures in which the pictures are light enough to show details and close ups for you to see all the intricacies of the fixture.   Hand stripped and hand finished.  Bio-degradeable, water soluable, EPA Compliant no/lowVOC, Green Cross Certified stripper used (Motsenbocker's Lift Off Paint & Varnish Remover in gel form) and cleaned with stiff plastic brush.  No bead blasting the fine detail away (hint: if a fixture needs to be bead blasted to remove corrosion or rust you may want to consider another fixture.  The rust or corrosion has already diminished the fine detail).  On Jun-25-08 at 13:04:21 PDT, seller added the following information:Possibly eariler than 1920s.
