Antique Green Mercury Glass & Brass Industrial Wall Sconces, c. 1920
An exceptional pair of early twentieth-century industrial wall sconces featuring rare ribbed green mercury glass shades mounted on solid cast brass wall brackets. Dating to approximately 1920, these fixtures beautifully combine industrial function with refined craftsmanship.
The pressed mercury glass shades feature an elegant spiral ribbed pattern that softly diffuses light while showcasing the rich green finish. The heavy brass wall arms and original style fitter develop a warm patina that perfectly complements the glass.
Professionally restored and rewired for modern use, these sconces are ideal for kitchens, hallways, libraries, restaurants, boutique hotels, or commercial interiors seeking authentic period lighting.
