What Is a Wall Sconce?
A wall sconce is a decorative lighting fixture that mounts directly to the wall, providing ambient or task illumination while saving floor and table space. Unlike plug in wall sconce models, hardwired sconces connect directly to your home's electrical system for a clean, integrated look. Modern wall sconce designs offer both functional lighting and sculptural visual interest in hallways, bedrooms, living rooms, and bathrooms.

- Rectangular Wall Mount -- The secure mounting plate ensures stable installation and clean lines against your wall surface.

Where Does a Modern Nickel Wall Sconce Work Best?
