Know before you buy
Yes, the Guilford Wall Sconce is a hardwired fixture. We recommend hiring a licensed electrician to ensure it is safely and correctly installed into your wall's electrical system.
No, this fixture is dry-rated and intended for indoor use in low-humidity areas. It is not suitable for bathrooms or any spaces where it might be exposed to moisture or steam.
The fixture accommodates one bulb. Because it features a candlestick-style design, we recommend using a candelabra-base bulb to maintain the intended aesthetic.
The fixture measures 4.75 inches in width and 19.75 inches in height. Be sure to measure your wall space, particularly if you are planning to install it in a narrow hallway or on either side of a fireplace mantel.
The crisp white linen shade can be gently dusted with a soft, dry cloth or a microfiber duster. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as these can damage or stain the fabric.
