Here's a nifty 100-year-old sconce for the bathroom or other location. It's all-original and in excellent condition, employing its original socket, too! Just use two screws to mount it to the wall or if you're more ambitious, an expanding "strap" so you can fasten it directly to your electrical box.
The white glass shade is the same vintage and came with the brass holder, suggesting they came together at the time of origin. The brass has a good natural patina which you can spiff up if you want by dusting and waxing. I'm leaving that choice to you. A quality paste wax works best in my opinion.
Use any wattage you want; a "standard" sized bulb of 100 watts fits nicely inside the shade.
Best news? I have more than one of these and if you need additional identical sconces, just ask once you've bought this one.
Dimensions: About 7 inches front to back. The back plate is 5 3/8 diameter, and shade about 4 inches across at the widest point.
