This pair of baroque wall lights, made of linden wood, was made in italy in the 1960s. The craftsmanship is truly exceptional, and it's not often you find pieces of this quality these days. The wall appliqué was lovingly crafted by hand in the early baroque style, and then each piece was painted by hand, adding a touch of personal artistry to every piece. The chandelier arms are made of metal, and they're really beautiful. The lamp sockets are perfect for e14 candlesticks, and for our friends in the american market, we've included the matching e12 adapter threads. These are just screwed onto the e14 bulbs and are barely noticeable. And you'll be delighted to know that the lampshades that come with the kit are absolutely gorgeous! they're the perfect finishing touch and are super easy to install — just pop them over your bulbs and you're good to go! the lampshades, in a beautiful shade of royal red, with a subtle golden border, perfectly complement the wall lights. I'm so excited for you to meet this beautiful pair! up to 250v (europe/uk standard).the wiring of this item may be original and might need replacement, if not specified otherwise.
