Fantastic pair of vintage Worldgift brass starburst wall candle sconces, made in India and believed to date to the 1960s–1970s.
These have a striking Mid-Century/Atomic starburst design with etched detailing, long pointed rays and curved brass arms holding individual taper candle cups.
These appear to be the Christmas version of this Worldgift starburst sconce design. Each still retains the green plastic ring/frame that originally supported a decorative Christmas wreath around the candle cup. The original wreath leaves/greenery are no longer present — only the green plastic rings and attachment points remain. The rings have intentionally been left in place rather than cut off so the new owner can choose to preserve, restore or remove them.
Identical starburst sconces have been documented with Worldgift / Z.Y. India markings. This pair is marked INDIA 1123, with additional faint markings that are difficult to read.
Perfect for Mid-Century Christmas, Atomic Christmas, vintage holiday, Hollywood Regency or eclectic décor.
Approximate measurements:
6½” wide
7–7½” tall
4” projection from wall
Condition: Good vintage condition with age-related patina, tarnish, oxidation, scratches and surface wear. The original Christmas wreath decorations are incomplete/missing, with only the green plastic support rings remaining. They have not been polished or restored. Please review all photos closely for exact condition.
Pair of 2 sconces included.
