Winning Detail: Brass Candle Wall Sconce

Antique brass candlesticks are a favourite way to instantly inject character and history into a space. Trying out brass candle sconces is a similar, bolder statement. They have texture, shine, patina, and charm! On top of that, they say candlelight is the most flattering of lighting!

At home, find a (safe, visible) place to show off your brass candle sconces. Try styling a pair around a painting or mirror, or a singular sconce in a hallway or above a sideboard.

While these are becoming available to purchase new, I’d highly recommend seeking out existing antique versions that suit your personal taste. It might take more time to find, but the hunt will ensure they’ll be unique and special! And more friendly to the environment. Scroll down to see some second-hand pieces I’ve sourced online.
