Pair of early 19th century silver plate wall sconces, likely Sheffield, of two-part construction with removable cup liners. Each sconce features a beaded edge drip pan and classical urn-form candle cup mounted to shaped mahogany backplates.
The contrast between polished silver plate and warm mahogany creates a restrained yet architectural presence, characteristic of early English decorative arts.
The sconces retain their removable liners and display the elegant proportion typical of the period.
