A medium-sized mirror candle-sconce that reflects delightful and key elements of Swedish Grace; fine hand-crafted pewter and delicate filigree miniatures that depict pastoral scenes as tasteful ornamentation. A lone goat sits atop the mirror with two flowers at its feet, then flowers elegantly cover the joints of the four lower points. 

The long hexagonal form is consistent with other sconces of the early 20th Century and is often seen in a triptych ensemble; two sconces on either side of a larger mirror.  The pewter is used throughout as the encompassing frame and pins holding the silvered mirror in place. A curved candle holder raises a candlestick so the wax is level with the pewter bordering the mirror, almost acting as a silent arm. The mirroring adds another dimension to the flickering flame, perfectly illuminating a hallway or bedside. 

This sconce can be made into a non-matching pair with this mirror.

The candle holder has been reattached to the mirror, yet very much in working condition.

The wear and repairs are consistent with the age.
