Know before you buy
Yes, this fixture is damp-rated, making it suitable for bathrooms or other areas with moisture, provided it is not in a location subject to direct water contact.
Yes, because the fixture is hardwired, professional installation is recommended to ensure it is safely and correctly mounted to your electrical system.
The Polaris Double Sconce requires two E12 base B11 LED bulbs. We recommend using 6.5W LED bulbs to achieve the intended soft, ambient glow.
The circular backplate features a 5-inch diameter, which is a standard size that should cover most existing junction boxes.
The tapered linen shades are designed to diffuse light, creating a soft and inviting ambiance rather than a harsh task light. While they provide lovely accent lighting, you may want additional overhead or task lighting if you plan to use this specifically for reading.
