Are these antique, and what are they worth?

Ok, so I am just getting a few rooms in my house painted The new color of my living room. Like it? which is coming out great. But I am now looking at some of the items in the house that have been here for some time. I just found out that the brass on the light switches are from 1903. So I started to wonder how old everything else might be. In addition I wonder what a few items might be worth as I don't want them anymore.

Thus i have the following collection of photos. Each of these sconces are of an unknown origin, company design, and age. The brass I believe to be from 1903 - 1910, around when the house was built. Everything else I am clueless about. Can anyone help me figure out what they are worth, and what they are?

I believe it's brass. Painted long before I bought the house. Hand Painted glass too. Not sure if this is brass or not. I believe under the paint it is. I did not paint it. The glass is hand painted though. Looks very old style. And it works.

Definitely brass sconces. Possibly from 1910. Etched glass. These are very nice but get hot after being on a while. They look great though. I will possibly sell them on eBay and replace them with something else. There are 2 of these.



Looks good with the wall, but iffy on keeping. There are too of these. They are above the fireplace. They look far better with the new wall color, so I might keep them. They look and feel metal. I know nothing more about them.


No idea what to do with it or what it is. The first of the upstairs sconces. This is metal, but not brass I think. Could be spun copper. The name on it is Snap It, but there is no date of when it was made. The glass has a small raised square design on it.

Selling these with speed once they are identifiedI hate these sconces. I thik it's ugly. They seem to be quite old. Hand painted and ceramic. I'm sure they are worth a bit. I will be selling them on eBay once i figure out what they are worth. There are 2 of these.

Selling these with speed once they are identified.Another sconce I can't stand. I will enjoy having these sold away. But I still want to know what they are and how much they could be worth. Any clues?

Selling these with speed once they are identified. Top view.Here is a top view if that helps anyone identify this. There are There is only 1 of these, thank goodness.

The sooner I get answers on what these sconces are and what they could be worth, the sooner someone out there gets to own a few of them. So let me know folks.
