Know before you buy
ADA compliance means the fixture extends no more than 4 inches from the wall, which is a requirement for public spaces to ensure they don't obstruct walkways. This makes it an excellent choice for narrow hallways or high-traffic areas in your home.
This fixture is rated for dry locations only. While it works well in a bathroom, it should be installed away from direct moisture, such as inside a shower or directly above a tub, to prevent damage.
Yes, this sconce is fully dimmable. To achieve the best results, ensure you are using a dimmable E26 bulb that is compatible with your specific wall dimmer switch.
This fixture is designed with an upward light direction. The etched opal glass helps diffuse the light, creating a soft, ambient glow rather than a harsh, direct beam.
This fixture requires one standard medium base (E26) bulb. You can use LED, incandescent, or CFL bulbs as long as they fit the E26 base and do not exceed the fixture's maximum wattage rating.
