The interior details from the Period Revival homes of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s were distinctly different from the Craftsman and Victorian periods. In some ways the influence was less fussy with clean uncluttered lines. The Spanish/Mediterranean influence was evident in some of the homes that had a definite Tudor design on the outside. Many of the Period Revival homes were almost contradictory with difference influences mixed together.

A. The Art Deco hanging light fixture is circa 1930s. The mixed metal portions have shields which are typical of the Tudor influence. The scalloped frosted glass "globes" have the vertical lines that were popular in the Deco period.

B. The Art Deco wall sconce shares the same scalloped frosted glass globe and the mixed metal detail.

C. The sconce from the Tudor Revival home has candle like details with bulbs designed to look like a candle flame. The bow decoration on the sconce doesn't appear to have much to do with anything Tudor.

D. The sconce that comes from one of the Normandy Gardens' Tudor Revival homes has a more authentic look like pewter torches hung on a wall. The copper color "candles" have drips caused by the flames.
