Know before you buy
Yes, the Orwell wall sconce features an articulating arm that allows you to pivot and direct the light exactly where you need it, making it ideal for task lighting.
This fixture uses a single E26 medium-base bulb with a maximum wattage of 100W. You can use incandescent, LED, or CFL bulbs as long as they fit the base and wattage requirements.
No, the shade features a partial design that leaves the bottom open. This allows for better heat dissipation and creates a more direct, ambient glow compared to a fully enclosed fixture.
This fixture is designed for hardwired installation. We recommend consulting with a licensed electrician to ensure it is safely mounted to your wall junction box.
Like most polished metal finishes, the chrome surface may show fingerprints or smudges with frequent handling. It can be easily wiped clean with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to maintain its shine.
While the design is versatile, it is not specifically rated for high-moisture environments like a shower or tub area. It is best suited for dry locations such as bedrooms, living rooms, or hallways.
