Modern electric light fixture sconces are often used in hallways or corridors to provide both lighting and a point of interest in a long passage.
The sconces providing illumination are luminescent lamps of a spherical design.
Triple-globe wall sconces around the perimeter illuminate a band of inlaid green iridescent glass tile on the walls.
Other furnishings, and ancillary art includes sculptures, original oil paintings, portrait miniatures, hand sewn tapestries, carved wood moldings, chandeliers, sconces, framed mirrors, and accessories.
Brass sconces were built in between the windows.
The crosses tend to be placed high on the walls and to have a candle sconce fixed beneath.
A sconce is a wall-mounted fixture, particularly one that shines up and sometimes down as well.
Throughout the house, wall sconces can be found in the shape of a hemispherical shade suspended beneath a square bronze fixture.
