Sailor Made Wall Sconces
  
Matching pair of sailor-made wall sconces dating to the early 19th century. All original save for a bit of putty used to secure a couple mirror sections in one sconce.  Inset ivory decorations. Expected losses to silvering on mirror sections.  Rare to find these in such good condition. Buyer will be provided with a letter we obtained from the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, documenting that the sconces may be freely sold and exported notwithstanding prohibitions set forth in the Marine Mammal Protection Act and Endangered Species Act against the sale or export of certain ivory products.  Ex-collection of Justin Cobb.  Apprx. 10" H x 6 3/8" W x 7´deep to front of candle holder.  (CA-8)
