Know before you buy
Yes, this fixture is specifically designed for bathroom environments. However, it is intended for indoor use, so ensure it is placed away from direct water spray or high-humidity zones like inside a shower enclosure.
This sconce uses a standard A-19 medium base bulb. It supports a maximum output of 100 watts, allowing you to choose between incandescent, LED, or CFL bulbs depending on your preferred brightness.
Yes, the glass shade is designed to be removed, which makes it easy to wipe down or dust. We recommend handling it carefully during removal to avoid any accidental chips or cracks.
Polished Nickel is a durable finish, but it can show fingerprints and water spots more easily than matte finishes. A simple wipe-down with a soft, dry microfiber cloth is usually enough to keep it looking pristine.
Yes, this fixture is compatible with most standard wall dimmers. Just ensure that the light bulb you select is also dimmable to achieve the desired lighting effect.
