18th Century Gustavian Sconce Mirror with Center Cameo, Sweden, Circa 1780
About the Item
18th century Swedish Gustavian single arm candle sconce mirror with center cameo, origin: Sweden, circa 1780
In Scandinavia, candlelight is an important element found in any interior (or exterior) in everyday life. The desire to capture light stems from the long, dark Northern winters; often using light paint colors and reflective materials such as this 18th Century Gustavian sconce mirror. The original objective of bringing “light” into people's homes during Winter days still works in our homes today. Beautifully simple, elegant furniture combined with crystal + tin chandeliers and mirrored sconces lit by candles all come together to create a magical interior. All pieces have a purpose and no excess is evident however there is a warmth which emanates from their aesthetic. More importantly though, Swedish antiques mix so well with pieces from all-over the world spanning many centuries. There is a timelessness to all they created.
We also sell bespoke, handmade white candles; in custom sizes as well.
