What Is a Wall Sconce?
A wall sconce is a light fixture mounted directly to the wall, providing ambient or task lighting without occupying floor or table space. Hardwired models like the Alithea connect to your home's electrical system, while plug in wall sconce options offer portability for bedrooms or rental spaces. Wall sconces serve as both functional lighting and decorative architectural elements.
