Antique sconces were used often in corridors or in pairs on both sides of an entryway. They featured a reflective backplate to intensify candlelight while keeping the candle a safe distance from the wall. They are commonly made of metals such as silver, bronze, or ormolu and became very decorative in the 18th Century.

The shape of the capital helps determine the characteristic features within the three classical architectural orders. The capital takes a convex shapes in the Doric order; concave shape in the inverted bell of the Corinthian order; or out scrolled shape in the Ionic order.
