Louis XV Style Bronze Wall Sconces Pair, Rocaille Two Arm Sconces, Terras Lyon — French, 1970s–80s

Lyon's bronze workshops kept the eighteenth century in production long after Paris moved on. Houses like Établissements Terras cast the Louis XV rocaille vocabulary — the shell-and-scroll cartouche, the leafy arm — to the old standard through the 1970s and 80s, in true art bronze, for French homes that wanted their walls dressed as walls had always been dressed. Pairs like this one are that continuity made metal: new castings in an old faith.

This pair is French, from the 1970s–80s, by Établissements Terras of Lyon, cast in genuine bronze to the French art-bronze standard of 73 parts copper to 27 tin: each sconce a cartouche backplate of scrolling acanthus rising to a palmette crest, carrying two leaf-wrapped arms that sweep down and out to foliate drip pans and candle sleeves. Run a thumb over the backplate's scrolls — real bronze casting takes crisp undercuts and holds them, and the leaf edges here stand free of the ground in a way pot-metal never manages; the weight in the hand confirms what the eye suspects. Each sconce takes two E14 screw bulbs — incandescent to 60 watts or LED. The pair is fully rewired through our workshop before dispatch and arrives prepared for wall installation, in working order.

The bronze carries an even gilt-toned surface with light age mellowing, as the photographs show. Whoever hung this Lyon pair before you kept both crests and every scroll intact. They are ready for a bedroom, a hallway, or facing across a dining room.

The pair is genuine cast bronze with four lights between them, rewired before dispatch. It arrives professionally packed and fully insured — we handle the paperwork and worldwide shipping, with all import duties paid by us, so there is nothing to settle on delivery. Returns are accepted within 30 days.
