Know before you buy
This fixture requires two bulbs with a maximum wattage of 120W. Please check the base type specifications on the packaging to ensure compatibility with your preferred LED or incandescent bulbs.
The fixture is UL certified for safety, but it is not specifically rated for damp or wet environments. It is best suited for dry interior spaces like living rooms, hallways, or bedrooms.
The sconce weighs 2 lbs. Because of its lightweight construction, it can typically be mounted to standard drywall with appropriate anchors or directly to a junction box.
The Aged Brass finish provides a warm, metallic luster that catches the light, while the Cupertino finish offers a slightly different, more muted tone. Both are applied to durable wrought iron to ensure a high-quality, lasting appearance.
The shades are designed to be part of the fixture's aesthetic, but they can be removed for cleaning or if you choose to swap them out. However, they are integral to the sconce's soft, diffused light output.
