The Nancy Fouts Studio Sale
A 19th-century Gothic Revival style brass candle sconce, with stylistic attributed similar to designs by Augustus Pugin. The twisted column mounted on a wall-mounted hinge, with sprouting leaf decoration. Length : 50cm.
Provenance: Direct from the estate of Nancy Fouts (1945-2019)
See the Dawsons website article for further information
Possibly a period fitting from the Oakley Square vicarage in Camden, which Nancy restored in the late 20th century. This sconce may have been part of the original fittings - or of the neighbouring church - when built by John Johnson (1807-1878), the architect who also designed Alexandra Palace.
