I found the name BAGUIET, PARIS on the back of an antique sconce. I'd
like to identify this name.

Dear stoffnovikids,

Is it possible that the name is actually not "Baguiet", but "Bagučs"?

Best regards,

possibly.

Dear stoffnovikids,

In case the name is indeed "Bagučs", as you consider possible, the
manufacturer is a French company that is still existing today:

Bagučs
73, avenue Daumesnil
75012 Paris
France

Phone: +33(0)1 43 41 53 53
Fax: +33(0)1 43 41 54 55
E-Mail: Contact@bagues-france.com
Website: http://www.bagues-france.com/

Bagučs is one of the oldest existing manufacturers of sconces and
similar objects in France; they are well-known for the modern
reproductions of their antique products. Also, they do maintain their
own studio for expert restoration of valuable old pieces once made by
them.
