These stately sconces are made of sturdy cast iron that is painted a lovely gold with small splashes of red. A winding geometrically symmetrical design gives these sconces even more unique character.
Two brothers, Henrik and Ole Moe, helped to found the Milwaukee-based Moe-Bridges lighting company in 1919. Later friction among various shareholders resulted in the brothers leaving the company in the late 1920s, and founding Moe Brothers Manufacturing. The designs often featured landscapes with forest or country scenes, and a water element. Products were typically signed on the shade of the light and the base, if it has one.
We find that early antique lighting was designed as objects of art and we treat each fixture with careful attention to preserve original beauty. Our fixtures are cleaned, rewired & are ready to hang, following UL standards. We can work with you on code requirements.
