The Beardslee Chandelier Manufacturing Company prided themselves on their cooperation with architects. The company marked all of their products with a trademark logo to guarantee a genuine product. The company installed lighting in offices, public buildings, and shopping centers, as well as offering 24-hour shipment catalogs of products that they had on stock. The backplate and arm of these sconces have a typical geometric form of the Craftsman style. These sconces could fit well in a kitchen, or bathroom were there might be other burnished brass hardware, as well as providing direct task lighting.
