Light classics: Empire style paired sconces on display at Violiti
Paired Empire-style sconces is another interesting lot of the Violity website. This is the true embodiment of sophistication and splendor.
The exhibited lot is a sconce with graceful cast elements and pendants that form a unique composition and give the interior an incomparable efficiency.
The Empire style has always been considered pretentious, filled with the sound of victorious fanfare. He was undoubtedly one of the richest styles. The presence of military heraldry - laurel wreaths, crossed swords or spears, gave pomp and imperial status to rooms where similar furniture and decor items were used.
Juicy colors, an abundance of expensive materials, inlays and carvings - all this required decent lighting. As a rule, all kinds of sconces and chandeliers performed in a single stylistic and color ensemble. The general compositional direction was often supported by the forces of lighting fixtures.
These could be luxurious multi-level chandeliers placed on the ceiling decorated with stucco molding. They perfectly scattered light reflections and maintained the shine of the crystal "stones".
Crystal floor lamps, which were used as light accents, lent stylistic completeness to classic interiors.
Sconces with multiple pendants - paired lamps or candelabra - added symmetry and balance to the Empire-style space.
Until the end of the auction for the lot "Sconce lamp (pair)", exhibited in the section "Furniture. Lamps. Decor", just over two days left.
