Contemporary Wall Sconces

Contemporary wall sconces take a current, softer approach to wall lighting, with sculptural shades, rounded forms, plaster, alabaster, fabric and mixed metals. They add warm, layered light beside a bed, around a bathroom mirror, along a hallway or above a kitchen shelf. Mount most sconces about 60 to 66 inches from the floor, use a pair to frame a bed or mirror, and choose a damp-rated fixture for a bathroom. Plug-in models add light without new wiring.
