Pineapple Wall Sconce Brass Antique

In Colonial America, a fresh pineapple was often the center of the dining table when visitors were present. Visiting was the primary means of entertainment and cultural exchange, so the concept of hospitality was a central element in colonial life. The pineapple symbolized the warmest welcome a hostess could extend to her guests, and it often served as the dessert after the meal. The sconce is of solid brass finished in various finishes, and is lacquered to maintain it's luster for years to come. The hurricane glass (included) protects flames from drafts. Available in Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Dark Bronze, and Satin Nickel finishes 6.5Lx6.5Wx21H
