What customers say
The Cavo sconce is highly praised for its exceptional quality and striking design. Many appreciate the substantial, handcrafted feel of the Coastal Burnished Steel finish, noting its durability.

Know before you buy
Yes, the Cavo wall sconce is wet-rated, meaning it is specifically engineered to withstand direct exposure to rain, snow, and moisture in outdoor environments.
No, the fixture does not include a bulb. It uses a standard GU10 base, which allows you to select the color temperature and brightness that best suits your outdoor space.
The opal glass acts as a diffuser, softening the light to create a warm, ambient glow rather than a harsh, direct beam. This makes it ideal for creating an inviting atmosphere on a porch or entryway.
Because it is wet-rated, it is versatile enough for both covered patios and fully exposed exterior walls. Its durable construction ensures it will hold up regardless of the level of shelter.
The fixture stands 26.8 inches tall with a width of 6.5 inches. Its narrow, elongated profile is designed to make a statement without overwhelming the architectural lines of your home.
