Project Information
This is a sconce I built based on a design by Frank Lloyd Wright for the Francis W. Little residence in Wayzata, MN. The house has been demolished but the living room containing four of the sconces exists in the The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
My version is made of walnut with rice paper shades and is 32" tall and 7" wide.
There was a question about the plans for this sconce so I wanted to add the plans source -
I built the lamp from plans available at Prairie Designs of California. Here's the link:

It is the Classic Prairie Wall Lamp Item # L2
Also I made a modification to the joinery in the scone; it is explained in a blog post /video at:
