Eames Era Mirrored Shadow Box Wall Display Shelf White and Gold
Back in the 1950s and early 60s, it was hard to find a home that didn't have a shadowbox display shelf on the wall. This one is quite attractive with a gold-veined mirror back with wooden frame and shelves painted creamy white with gold accents along the outer frame molding edges. The shadow box measures 28 by 24 inches. It extends five inches from the wall and has 3" deep inner shelves.
The shelf is in very good condition with no damage and little wear. The upper and lower inner wood panels (shelf and top pieces) have a couple of small nicks or scratches to the paint, and there is some minor chipping and wear to the corners and edges, none of which will be at all noticeable when hung on the wall. The back top has two sturdy metal hinged loops for hanging. A wonderfully retro piece of Eames Era wall decor to display your Mid-Century treasures. This item is too large to safely ship internationally.

Scrolly Gold Wicker Wall Shelf Etagere
This vintage wicker and wood wall shelf or small etagere is framed in scrolly rattan curlicues at the top, sides, and shelf openings. It stands 25" high at the center by nearly 18" wide by 7" deep. The shelves are spaced about 10" apart to accommodate taller curios and collectibles. Two metal keyhole hangers are attached to the upper back for mounting on the wall, or you can let the unit rest on a shelf or countertop.
The shelf has been painted gold but you can of course easily change the color to match your decor with a can of spray paint. The shelf is in very good condition with only one split to a curlicue at the lower left side of the center shelf (a clean break that fits back together well so you can't see it unless you know where it is).
Circa: 1970

Art Nouveau Spelter Wall Candle Sconce
A beautiful single Victorian candle sconce in heavy spelter metal from the Art Nouveau era. It's 15 inches tall, depth from the wall to the candle bobeche is 8-1/2". At some point it was painted white, but the original finish appears to have been gilded. The narrow sconce has a lady's face in high relief at the center focal point, the candle cup is ornately engraved with floral motifs. There is some natural age wear to the paint as shown but the new owner may wish to completely strip it and restore the original finish. There are no breaks or repairs to the metal.
