A signed Petitot fixture is the French lighting trade's version of a hallmark: the house numbered and struck its work, and collectors of French lighting buy the name with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair is French, by Maison Petitot, circa 1960, each sconce signed and numbered on the reverse, in gilt bronze: the Louis XV rocaille model — a tapering fluted quiver backplate crowned by a swirled flame urn finial, from which a single sinuous acanthus-wrapped arm scrolls down and forward to a leafy rosette drip pan and a scroll-cast candle socket. Turn one over and the reverse tells the story — the Petitot signature and the number struck into the bronze, the house's practice since the nineteenth century, and around them the hand-finished backs that a serious workshop dresses even where no one looks. The gilt surfaces carry some traces of wear consistent with their sixty years. The pair is fully rewired through our workshop before dispatch and arrives prepared for wall installation, in working order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze is crisp and the wear honest, exactly as the photographs show. Whoever hung this signed pair before you kept name, numbers, and every scroll intact. They are ready to flank a mirror, a doorway, or a chimney breast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pair is signed and numbered Petitot gilt bronze, nearly three kilograms together, rewired before dispatch.
