What Is a Wall Sconce?
A wall sconce is a light fixture mounted directly to a wall, designed to provide ambient, task, or accent lighting without occupying floor or table space. Sconces can be hardwired or plug in, and many feature decorative elements like shades, arms, or metal finishes that enhance the room's aesthetic while delivering functional illumination.
