Ironwork: sconces

These are five wrought iron sconces made by Daniel Boone VI. The sconces have attached hanging glass jars signed Daniel Boone. Although made in the 1950s, these typical of the work Boone was creating in the 1940s. Boone was a fifth generation blacksmith, trained by his father Kelse Boone of Burnsville, N.C. He taught industrial arts students at Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, N.C. in the 1940s and also operated a forge with his brother Lawrence Boone, and later by himself, in Spruce Pine, N.C
