Know before you buy
This fixture uses a single E12 candelabra base bulb. It supports up to 60 watts, making it compatible with most standard E12 LED or incandescent bulbs.
The Charny Wall Sconce is designed specifically for indoor use in dry locations. It is not rated for bathrooms or areas with high humidity, as the composite material and linen shade are not moisture-resistant.
The Gesso White finish provides a matte, slightly chalky, and organic appearance. It is designed to look intentional and textural rather than a high-gloss or clinical white, which helps soften the overall look of the fixture.
The coarse linen shade is designed as an integral part of the fixture's aesthetic. While it can be removed for cleaning or bulb changes, it is specifically fitted to the Charny's proportions and should not be swapped for a standard off-the-shelf shade.
As a single-light fixture with a linen shade, the Charny is better suited for ambient or accent lighting rather than task lighting. The shade diffuses the light to create a soft, warm glow, which is ideal for hallways, living rooms, or bedside mood lighting.
