wall sconce

These are Federal Revival period wall sconces featuring eagle finials and glass hurricane shades. The fixtures are designed in an American Federal style, often crafted from bronze or brass and stamped by manufacturers like Sterling Bronze Company. They typically utilize clear or frosted glass hurricane shades, sometimes with etched or star-shaped patterns. These fixtures are often configured for single or double candelabra sockets, suitable for dry environments. (Kremer, 2026) Photo from Morven Museum & Garden, Princeton, New Jersey, 2023.
