Ca. 1820 New York Candle Sconce

Excellent early 19th C. sheet iron candle sconce with a reflecting back plate shaped like a candle flame, a scarce and distinctive form. The reflector edges are hand-crimped, and the drip pan is equally unusual in having been raised by the tinsmith on a drape mold and left uncrimped. Completely original and untouched. Found in the Hudson River Valley and probably made there in the first quarter of the 1800s.
