Your scones, judging from the pictures are made in the first half of the 20th century. The design is inspired by a 18th century model that was common in Europe and usually made of brass or bronze. Wall scones are very decorative and creates a fine atmosphere, so if you have plans to sell them I believe you will have no problem.

NOTES
Wall sconce is a very old form of lighting, the early ones were used with different kind of oils and later with candles and gas. They could provided a general lighting in rooms, corridors, hallways and on outside walls. The light of the candle flame was often intensified by a reflecting backplate, but it also made it a bit more safe. Later came wall scones with cut glass to spread the light.

I had the sconces appraised. I will send the buyer the certificate. I don't know.
Push button knob to turn on and off. There's an old label on the back but I cannot make out

I thought the sconces were cast aluminum because it looks like that from behind but according to the appraisal it is not. less
