A pair of Swedish repoussé zinc wall sconces featuring double candle holders, originating from Vessigebro, Sweden, dated 1740 (stamped). The shield-shaped backplates are richly decorated with embossed floral and geometric motifs, and adorned with traditional Swedish motifs—hearts, tulips, leaves, and a central oval cartouche depicting a floral motif. The detachable candle holders, complete with drip trays, fit standard dinner candles (with some help from blutack) and hook securely into the backplate for ease of use and cleaning. The shields  are crafted using the repoussé technique—where the metal is hammered from the reverse to create raised decorative relief.
