Sconce

This sconce with three candleholders was constructed from a deer antler wrapped in iron. The wall mount is forged in the shape of oak leaves with a twig and acorn adornment.

The sconce is said to be one of the original light fixtures created by Cyril Colnik for the Brown Bottle Guest Hall and Hospitality Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Opened in 1938 by the Schlitz Brewing Company, the Brown Bottle was styled as a traditional European alehouse and featured oak woodwork salvaged from European castles and inns.
