Pair of architectural ornamental sconces made of carved, gilded and polychrome wood. Both pieces have the same design inspired by elements of classical antiquity. The lower area decorated with several carved and gilded acanthus leaves serves as the end point of a structure that follows the format of a large volute on which ornamental elements have been carved, which stand out for their golden finish on the blue and red base of the structure of each of the brackets that make up this lot. This volute ends in a human face in each of the cases conceived as caryatids on which rests a tympanum that gives way to a wide overhanging cornice.
