OMG what a pretty light ...
just perfect for your Paris Apartment or Shabby Chic decor.

This wall sconce light is marked Portugal on the frame of the light and the sockets are marked Made in Italy. I believe the frame is brass (a magnet does not stick to it). The complete light looks like a big sparking crown. The frame is edged with a beaded design. Crystal beads are vintage and appear to be original to the light. I had to add a few strands, but used vintage crystals from another light. It has a chandelier size light sockets to light each area. The back is a shiny metal to reflect the light. I don't know the age, but it has cloth-covered wire.

Size: 18½" long ... top part of the crown is 4" across and 3¼" wide ... the bottom crown is 9" across and is 3¼" wide. It sticks out from the wall about 5½".
The bottom finial is about 3" wide.
Weight is SIX pounds.

Condition: Frame has some tarnish and needs to be cleaned/polished/painted or brass plated. There is a little bit of white paint on the bottom finial. Mirrored backing is in good vintage condition. I don't see any major damage such as heavy scratches and it reflects like a glass mirror. One socket has a split in the brass cover. The picture makes it look larger than what it is. I don't think this would affect the safety of the light. I believe they are porcelain covered with brass. Wiring looks okay, but should be checked before using. Crystals have been washed. In my pictures, they hang a little loose and need to be snuggled up to make them hang correctly. Crystals will be removed for shipping and when replaced, they can be adjusted.

Marks: As mentioned ... Frame is marked Portugal on the back of the bottom finial. Sockets are marked Made in Italy.

Beautiful light.
