Know before you buy
Yes, the fixture is inspired by Danish lighting design, which utilizes layered, curved shades to shield the light source and prevent harsh glare, resulting in a softer, more comfortable glow.
The Barron requires two E12 Candelabra base bulbs. Each socket supports up to 40 watts, allowing for a total of 80 watts of illumination.
The opal etched shade acts as a diffuser, softening the light emitted by the bulbs to create a warm, even glow that eliminates hotspots and harsh shadows.
The Barron is UL certified for safety, but it is designed primarily for dry interior spaces. We recommend checking the specific installation instructions if you are considering it for a bathroom or high-humidity area.
The sconce measures 18.5 inches wide, 18.5 inches high, and extends 8.25 inches from the wall. Given its size, it works best as a statement piece in entryways, hallways, or flanking a large mirror.
The exterior features a finely textured black finish that is durable and easy to maintain. Simply dust the fixture periodically with a soft, dry cloth to keep it looking its best.
