Gold Wall Sconces in the range

Gold Wall Sconces here are 4 to 24 inches tall, in Brushed Brass, Gold, Black,gold,white and Clear,gold. Frames use Steel, Iron, Glass and Metal, with shades in Glass, White Frosted Glass and ‎glass. Light counts run from 1 to 4. Every product page states the assembled dimensions, the weight and the bulb base.

Choosing the right size

Mount the fixture centre 60 to 66 inches from the floor in a hallway or living room. Beside a bed, drop it to 30 to 36 inches above the mattress so the light lands on the page.

Wiring and bulbs

This group holds both hardwired fixtures and plug-in models, and each product page says which. Dimmable models are marked on their product pages. Wet-rated fixtures in this group are safe for covered outdoor use. Bulb base and whether bulbs are included are stated on every listing, so you know before it arrives.

Finishes and materials

Finishes cover Brushed Brass, Gold, Black,gold,white, Clear,gold and Gold+white. Construction runs to Steel, Iron, Glass, Metal and Brass. A finish name describes the color applied to the fixture rather than the metal underneath, and the product page states both.

Common questions

What is a wall sconce? A wall sconce is a light fixture mounted on the wall rather than the ceiling. It throws light up, down or both, and is used for hallways, bedsides and either side of a mirror where a ceiling fixture would leave shadows.

How do you install a wall sconce light fixture? These are hardwired. Switch off the circuit, mount the bracket to the wall box, connect line, neutral and ground, then fit the backplate over it. Plug-in models in this group need no wiring at all and hang on the supplied bracket.

How high should you hang wall sconces next to a bed? Aim for the bottom of the sconce around 30 to 36 inches above the mattress, which puts the light at reading height when you are sitting up. Hang them 6 to 10 inches out from the edge of the bed so the light falls on the page.
