APRIL FUN
Lot 23:
Description
This coordinating set of contemporary Americana style decorative arts is constructed from patinated sheet metal with a dark brass-tone distressed finish, resembling items produced by Alpine Corporation. The group includes a pair of wall-mounted candle sconces and a miniature decorative wheelbarrow. All pieces feature a traditional punched-tin technique depicting a stylized heart and scroll motif. The sconces are designed with arched backplates, machine-crimped scalloped top edges, and cylindrical candle cups at the base. The wheelbarrow is constructed with a wirework frame and a functional spoked wheel, and it includes a sawtooth hanger on the back plate for wall mounting or tabletop display. No maker marks are present.
Sconces: 9.5 inches height
Wheelbarrow: 4.5 inches height.
Condition report:
The items exhibit an intentionally distressed patina. Visual inspection reveals minor surface wear, scattered scratches, and small areas of oxidation consistent with decorative use. One sconce retains an adhesive blue lot sticker.
