Know before you buy
Yes, this fixture is compatible with LED, incandescent, and CFL bulbs as long as they feature a standard E26 medium base.
No, this sconce is rated for dry locations only. It should be installed in interior spaces like hallways, living rooms, or dining areas where it will not be exposed to moisture.
The sconce extends 203.2 mm (approximately 8 inches) from the wall surface. Be sure to account for this depth if you are installing it in a high-traffic walkway.
With three bulbs supporting up to 60 watts each, this fixture provides a total of 180 watts of light. It is designed as an uplight, which creates a soft, ambient glow rather than direct task lighting.
The fixture measures 34.25 inches in height and 19.5 inches in width. Given its substantial size, it works best on larger wall spaces where it can serve as a focal point.
