What Is a Wall Sconce?
A wall sconce is a lighting fixture mounted directly to a wall, designed to provide ambient, accent, or task lighting without occupying floor or table space. Hardwired wall sconces connect to your home's electrical system and often feature decorative designs that serve as both functional lighting and wall art.
