Know before you buy
Yes, the Salem Wall Sconce is UL Listed for damp locations, making it suitable for bathrooms or powder rooms where moisture is present.
Yes, the fixture includes a 5W T14 E26 LED bulb with a warm 2700K color temperature, which is specifically chosen to complement the glass design.
The Salem Wall Sconce is designed to be compatible with full-range dimming, but please note that the dimming capability depends on your home's existing wall switch and wiring setup.
The fixture measures 6 inches wide and 13.13 inches high, with a depth of 8.13 inches. Its compact backplate is specifically engineered for tighter areas like entryways or reading nooks.
Contract Grade indicates that the fixture meets higher standards for durability and construction quality, ensuring it can withstand the wear and tear of high-traffic environments.
The cone shade and geometric glass accent are accessible, though because the design showcases the bulb, you may want to wipe the glass occasionally with a microfiber cloth to maintain its clarity and light reflection.
