About our interior sconces:

When Joe and Cynthia Ramsey started touring historic sites in the early 60’s, studying the historic record, tin sconces dominated. The most famous was the Carpenter Hall sconce from Philadelphia. Everyone and their mother does their own version. The one Cynthia created is by far the most elegant. She saw the sconce in a museum in Dover, DE. No pictures were allowed, so she memorized it, and drew it in the car, making sure the curves were fair. It wasn’t until later, when she saw it in a magazine or book, that she realized it was the famous Carpenter Hall sconce. The original is 24” high, vs. 15” for ours. Of course, we could make it the original size, or anything in between, if it would be appropriate for your wall.

In those early years of the 60’s, our sconce catalog was entirely colonial tin. We’ve come a long way since then, from creating our own colonial tin to sconces gracing formal dining rooms of various periods.

Remember, if you don’t see what you are looking for, we can make it so.

All sconces are UL listed for dry locations.
