This is a GRAY sconce; when they say oxidized black, they mean gray!  I'll have to spray paint this to have it match other oil rubbed bronze fixtures.
Other than that, my only gripe is that the three metal pieces that make up the top (the stick part, the round tray part, and then the "candle stick" part) are thin and flimsy and hard to align.  I worry that they will be tricky to maintain.
