A Clean Look with White Indoor Wall Sconces
The clean look of white indoor wall sconces allows this type of fixture to work well with a range of home spaces and styles. The simple silhouette of many of these wall lights lets them blend in, providing an additional layer of accent lighting to the surrounding space.
White wall sconces can also be effective outside the home, bringing necessary illumination to the patio, balcony, or pool areas. These outdoor wall lights can also light front and back doors, signaling to guests the entrance to the home while introducing the style to be seen indoors, whether at a casual social gathering or a full party.
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.
