Polished Nickel Double Arm Sconce with Crystal Accents

A Radiant Expression of Refined Vintage Glamour

The Polished Nickel Double Arm Sconce with Crystal Accents captures the essence of timeless sophistication — a luminary that evokes the silvery shimmer of candlelight reflected in ballroom mirrors. Designed by John Burke, this exceptional vintage wall sconce pairs the cool sheen of polished nickel with the delicate sparkle of hand-cut crystal, creating an atmosphere that is at once regal and ethereal.

Each graceful curve of its double arms recalls the refined symmetry of neoclassical design. From the elegant scrollwork to the elongated finial, every detail speaks of balance and craftsmanship. At the heart of the design, a faceted crystal column glimmers beneath the polished nickel frame, refracting light into gentle prisms that dance softly across the wall. Two slender arms extend outward, each crowned with a candle-style socket and finished with ivory pleated shades that diffuse the glow into a serene, silken radiance.

Within Vintage Glamour interiors, this sconce feels right at home — adorning a mirrored hallway, flanking an ornate vanity, or illuminating a formal dining alcove with dignified restraint. It recalls the golden age of luxury interiors, when craftsmanship and beauty were inseparable, and lighting served not only to brighten but to enchant. The combination of crystal and polished metal conjures a feeling of old-world grandeur updated with modern refinement, offering an enduring statement piece for both classic and contemporary spaces.

John Burke’s design philosophy — where proportion, material, and light coexist in perfect harmony — is evident in every polished contour. The nickel finish has been meticulously buffed to a silvery luster, while the crystal elements, each precision-cut, shimmer with an understated opulence. The sconce’s tiered silhouette and pendant crystals add movement and texture, catching light like jewelry adorning a ballroom gown.

When lit, the Polished Nickel Double Arm Sconce with Crystal Accents emits a glow reminiscent of candlelight through fine glass, its warmth balanced by the cool reflection of metal. It feels deeply atmospheric — the kind of light that enhances quiet evenings and intimate gatherings alike. Whether mounted in pairs beside a gilded mirror or as an accent in a grand stairwell, this vintage lighting invites a sense of occasion.

More than illumination, it represents a celebration of craft. Designed to endure as an heirloom, it bridges generations through beauty and design integrity. Given as a wedding gift or selected to grace an elegant home, this sconce transcends trends, capturing that rare quality of timelessness found only in truly fine objects.
