Rustic Wall Sconces

Why We Love Rustic Wall Sconces

Reminiscent of gallant torches from more primitive times, wall sconces add light with a nod to the past. Rustic wall sconces instill a touch of outdoorsy charm to your living spaces, whether inside or out. The oft-neutral hues pair well with existing décor and depending on the style, these wall lights can carry an interior decoration theme or simply enhance the lighting of your home. These rustic modern sconces make it easy to dress up the look of your home with a style that matches your design preferences. From timeless traditional to ultra contemporary, these lighting elements offer a bit of sylvan appeal to your entryways, window walls, and other points of interest.

Where Rustic Wall Sconces Work Best

Flanking your front door may be the first place that comes to mind when you think of rustic wall sconces, but it certainly isn't the only place they dazzle. Rustic wall lights also work wonders beside large mirrors, particularly those above a vanity, or even in between or on the outer edge flanking vast window walls inside the home. You might try installing sconces on either side of a fireplace to further amplify the sentiment of warmth. This style of lighting also dresses up a dining room or sitting area where a touch of modishness goes a long way to enhancing the overall decor. And of course, the rustic theme is a go-to choice for any style of outdoor lighting.
