The sconce ensconced.


Well here it is, in situ, up at the barn. I'm happy with it.

Looks good.

I think I found the right spot.

Cro Magnon said...

It wasn't cheap, but I'm pleased I bought it.

Kate said...

YES!

Cro Magnon said...

You approve then? Good!

Cro - it is absolutely beautiful - you have such a good eye.

Cro Magnon said...

It's a pretty classic French antique. It was covered in dust, so I imagine had come from some old barn.

Now I see it on the wall I can understand why you bought it and why you opted for candles. Now for the lighting of the candles.

They may never be lit; no drip trays.

Rather charming.

Yael said...

So beautiful.

Cro Magnon said...

In its way.

I like the mix of old and new; it works at the barn.

The whole scene is lovely and the sconce is perfect there.

It was hard to see it properly in your previous photo, but it looks great in situ on the wall.

Oh yes, you must have one special winter night with the fire lit and candles alight.

Ah, I've thought of just the thing...some of those little paper cases that homemade chocolates go in would make good drip trays under the candles as long as you keep an eye on them. Looks lovely.

That's lovely, it looks like it just belongs there.

Cro Magnon said...

Try a French boot sale!

Cro Magnon said...

I think I found the right spot; it wasn't easy.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm sure it'll have its moment; I'll need to make some drip trays.

Cro Magnon said...

That's what I thought; just the right size, etc.

Cro Magnon said...

Yes, it needs something small, neutral coloured, and well fitting. I'll probably just make them myself.

gz said...

exactly. just the right thing

A good looking corner! And that's some fine rendering you have there.
