Product Description
These Jewel-Studded Bronze Tin Wall Sconces are sold as a matching pair and measure approximately 8 x 12 inches each with a 4 inch depth, handcrafted in San Miguel, Mexico from formed tin or steel with an antiqued brass-bronze satin finish. Their slim half-cylinder shape hugs the wall for a clean, low-profile look, while multicolored glass cabochons in red, amber, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, and violet add vibrant jewel-like accents that glow beautifully when illuminated. Rolled lips, hemmed seams, and careful hand-finishing highlight the artisan workmanship, making these Mexican tin wall sconces a striking choice for entryways, hallways, powder rooms, bar walls, fireplace flanks, and covered outdoor spaces. Order this handcrafted pair today to bring warm ambient light, colorful detail, and rustic elegance to your home.
Material and Craftsmanship
Hand-punched and formed metal creates the curved faces and flat backs. Cabochons are set in tidy bezels with consistent spacing for a modern rhythm. Directional hand rubbing in the patina builds depth and avoids flat color. Rolled top and bottom edges improve strength and comfort at touch points.

Lighting Effect
With lamps on, the faces glow softly without frontal glare. Each cabochon becomes a tiny colored point source, casting delicate halos and prismatic sparkle. The curved bodies produce an up/down wall wash ideal for mood and wayfinding. When off, the satin patina and jewel colors still read with presence.
