What customers say
The Ava Wall Sconce is overwhelmingly celebrated as a beloved statement piece, praised for its superior design and material quality. Reviewers consistently describe its aesthetic as sculptural, blending modern minimalism with classic elegance. A key highlight is the exceptional craftsmanship, noted in the substantial weight and flawless metal finish, which validates the premium investment. While installation is manageable, the solid build requires secure mounting. Customers confirm the sconce excels as a design element, though it functions best as an accent light rather than a primary source. Overall satisfaction remains very high due to its undeniable visual impact and high end construction.
Know before you buy
No, the Ava Wall Sconce is designed exclusively for LED bulbs. Using an incandescent bulb generates too much heat, which can damage the hand-sewn leather shade.
Not necessarily. The Ava comes with a brown twisted cloth cord and plug, allowing you to mount it and plug it directly into an outlet. However, it can also be hardwired if you prefer a cleaner look without visible cords.
The arm is designed for versatile positioning, allowing you to direct the light either up or down. The simple joint design ensures the arm stays securely in place once you have adjusted it to your preferred angle.
For ease of use, the on/off knob is conveniently located directly on the shade, so you don't have to reach for a wall switch or cord.
The brass arm itself is 17 inches long, and when the shade is attached, the total extension from the wall is 23 inches. The backplate height is 14.5 inches.
