The Glamorous Look of Brass Indoor Wall Sconces
To bring glamour, sophistication, and a clean, metallic sheen to the walls of the home, introduce the presence of brass wall sconces. Brass wall sconces bring additional light to areas while saving space by mounting on walls. When mounted along a hallway,wall lights can lead a guest from room to room, and when placed in larger rooms can provide a subtle, yet necessary accent glow to the layer of light already present.
The sense of sophistication and cleanliness doesn’t end with the indoors. When mounted outside, outdoor wall lights can bring light to all festivities on the patio, balcony, or by the poolside by accenting the light from ceiling fans or pendants. The front door and back door also benefit from the presence of a brass sconce by marking the location of the door for guests and inviting them inside while introducing the style of the home.
Indoor Wall SconcesFrequently Asked Questions
What is a wall sconce?
In the simplest of terms, a wall sconce is a light fixture that hangs on a wall. A sconce can have any number of bulbs and some sconces can double as a flush mount, mounting to either the wall or the ceiling. Wall sconces come in all shapes, sizes, and styles, making an option available for all types of homes.
How high should a wall sconce hang?
Although houses, rooms, and personal preferences differ, wall sconces as a general rule of thumb should be placed on the wall between 60-72 inches. For higher ceilings, consider a height minimum of 66 inches. This will prevent the light bulbs in the sconces from accidentally aligning with anyone's eye line. Wherever they are mounted, make sure they don't align with the window frame height — the sconces should be lower than the window. If multiple sconces are in the room, make sure there is at least 6 feet of space between them and, as a final rule, sconces should be at least 6 inches from doors or window frames.
