DescriptionThis object is an arrowhead-shaped copper candle sconce. A cylindrical candle base sits atop a small platform extending outwards from the bottom of the object. The backplate of the object has a small, egg-shaped convexity to aid in the dispersal of light from a candle. There is a small hole close to the upper tip of the object to mount it on a wall. The Roycroft insignia is located behind the candle base on the backplate. Object is in good condition with little to no visible corrosion.
