Re: Large antique brass finished church or theater lights.

These are generally called Sanctuary Lights or Church Lanterns, often hung in churches over the altar/pulpit area and left on 24/7. Values for them depend a great deal on their vintage ( most date 1920's -50's) and the church they came out of. Currently they are a tough sell in the general antique market, at auction values for comparable pairs is under $400.00
