Know before you buy
No, this fixture is specifically engineered for upward mounting only to ensure the proper distribution of light and structural stability.
This sconce uses a single medium base (E26) bulb with a maximum wattage of 100W. Please note that the bulb is not included with the fixture.
This fixture is rated for indoor dry locations only. It is not recommended for bathrooms or other areas where it may be exposed to high levels of moisture or steam.
The fixture measures approximately 11.75 inches wide and 35 inches high, with an extension of 13.25 inches from the wall. Ensure you have adequate clearance for these dimensions before installation.
The Salon Scavo glass features a textured, artisanal finish that softens the light output. This creates a warm, diffused, and inviting ambient glow rather than a harsh, direct beam.
