Know before you buy
Yes, each sconce has been professionally re-wired and includes a new circular brass backplate, making them ready for standard wall mounting.
These sconces feature a single socket designed for standard-base bulbs. We recommend using a warm-toned LED bulb to complement the natural cane and bamboo materials.
As authentic 1960s pieces, these materials have developed a beautiful, natural patina. To maintain their condition, keep them away from direct moisture and dust them gently with a soft, dry cloth.
Due to the natural cane and bamboo construction, these fixtures are best suited for dry interior spaces like living rooms, hallways, or bedrooms rather than bathrooms or areas with high humidity.
The sconces include the new brass backplates required for mounting. You will need to provide standard screws appropriate for your specific wall material, such as drywall or plaster.
