Hardwired Brushed Brass Wall Sconce Pair with White Fabric Shades

This LIGHTEXP wall sconce set is a pair of hardwired wall lights with slender brushed brass bodies and white flared fabric shades, standing 20.86 inches tall, made for bathroom vanities, bedsides and hallways in homes that lean vintage industrial. Brass is used for the column and arm rather than plated steel, which gives the metal weight and a warm tone without a high polish.

Each fixture takes a standard E26 bulb up to 60 watts, sold separately, so the output and color temperature are chosen at purchase. The fabric shade is the piece that determines how the light behaves in the room: it diffuses the lamp behind it into a soft, even glow that can be looked at directly from a bed or a mirror.

Product Schema

Design Story

The proportions here are deliberate. At 20.86 inches tall with a 6.7 inch shade, the column is long relative to the shade, which lifts the light above eye level on a bathroom wall and keeps the source out of the sightline of anyone standing at the basin. That is what makes the fixture comfortable rather than merely decorative.

A flared fabric shade was specified over a straight drum because the flare opens the light cone downward and outward, so a single 60W lamp covers more of a vanity or a bedside area than the same lamp in a narrower cylinder. White fabric transmits more of that output than a colored or lined shade, which matters when the fixture is the main source in a small room.

Brass is brushed rather than polished for practical reasons: a mirror finish shows fingerprints, water spotting and every scratch, while a brushed surface holds its appearance on a fitting that gets touched daily. LIGHTEXP leaves the small accessories behind the bottom disk of the shade holder, so the shade should be removed before the fitting is wired rather than after.

Where It Works Best

Bathroom vanity — either side of the mirror. Two fixtures flanking a mirror, mounted so the shade sits above eye level, give the even cross-lit result that shaving and makeup need, and the fabric shade keeps the light off the mirror surface rather than bouncing a hard reflection back into the room. Brushed brass suits a marble or timber vanity top and pairs with brass tapware and a framed mirror in the same metal. A pair at 60 watts each is enough for a standard family bathroom. Heights and spacing are covered in the Lighting Design Guides.

Bedroom — reading light at the bedside. Mounted either side of a headboard with the shade at roughly shoulder height when seated, the pair replaces table lamps and puts the switch on the wall where a hand can find it. The fabric shade at a moderate wattage gives a soft glow suitable for reading in bed without lighting the whole room, and the long brass column reads well against a painted or papered wall. Bedside layouts for different bed widths appear in the Design Inspiration & Ideas section.

Hallway, entryway and stair. A pair spaced along a hallway or flanking a front door gives a circulation space a rhythm, and the upward flare of the shade throws a soft patch of light onto the wall above each fixture, which is what stops a corridor from feeling like a tunnel. In an entryway, mount them either side of a console table with a mirror above for a balanced arrangement. For coordinating fittings in adjoining rooms, the Full Lighting Collection includes further brass wall and ceiling pieces. Have a look at the pair for your own rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions

How difficult is installation, and what tools are needed?

These are hardwired fixtures that connect to a wall junction box, so a licensed electrician is the right call unless you are experienced with mains wiring. All mounting hardware is included: the back plate is 4.72 inches square, the bracket screws to the box, the wires are joined, and the body is fixed over the bracket. The small accessories ship behind the bottom disk, so unpack that before you start.

What bulb does it take, and is it dimmable?

Each fixture has a standard E26 socket rated to a maximum of 60 watts and accepts LED, CFL, halogen or incandescent bulbs; bulbs are not included. Dimming depends on fitting a dimmable bulb and having a compatible dimmer on the circuit, and the manufacturer does not state dimmer compatibility, so confirm with your electrician before specifying one.

What size space will the pair suit?

Measure before ordering: the fixture is 20.86 inches tall and 7.87 inches wide overall, with a 6.7 inch shade and a 4.72 inch square back plate. That footprint suits placement either side of a bathroom mirror or a bed, or spaced along a hallway, and is compact enough for a narrow entry wall. As hardwired units, final position follows the junction boxes.

How do I clean and care for the shades and brass?

Dust the fabric shade with a dry cloth or a soft brush and avoid wetting it, since fabric over a frame can stain and holds moisture against the metal. Wipe the brushed brass with a dry microfiber cloth, following the direction of the grain, and avoid solvents and abrasive pads that will brighten the brushed surface unevenly. Nothing needs polishing.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are processed within 3–5 business days. Standard delivery takes 7–15 business days, shipped in protective foam-in-box packaging with tracking provided. Both fixtures ship in one carton with the fabric shades protected against crushing and the hardware bag stored behind the bottom disk.

What are the return and warranty terms?

Returns are accepted within 30 days on unused items in original packaging, which for a hardwired fixture means uninstalled with all hardware intact. The 24-month warranty covers structural components and the light module, including the brass column and arm, the back plate and mounting hardware and the socket, against defects under normal residential use.
