Wall Sconces

Wall sconces are perhaps the most ubiquitous and popular type of wall-mounted light fixtures. The term dates back to the 15th-century Anglo-French word that described wall brackets used for holding candles in those days. Today, French wall sconces or any other type of sconce can deliver the same mixture of good looks, elegance and practicality. Used with modern, electric light bulbs, sconces can truly make your home a modern castle.

These lights are affixed to a wall and typically feature one or two lamps. They come with or without a shade, depending on your preference. Whichever style you choose, they will provide quality lighting in hallways, bedrooms, offices and just about anywhere else you choose to put them.

At 1800Lighting, we have the world's best selection of top-quality wall sconces including high-quality options by ELK Lighting, Fine Art Lamps and Hinkley. In addition, you can find beautiful sconces crafted by Hudson Valley, Justice Design Group, Quorum International and Tech Lighting.

Styles and Types of Wall Sconces

If you prefer classic wall sconces with a single bulb, our user-friendly website makes it easy to find what you're looking for. You can narrow your search simply by clicking on one-light wall sconces to filter your results and make your search more manageable. Although sconces with a single bulb are the most popular and traditional type of wall sconce, they come in an amazing variety of styles to suit your unique home decor scheme. For example, you can use a striking industrial-style sconce with a filament bulb and an antiqued finish to play into your raw decor style or pick a novelty style that highlights your out-of-the-box, contemporary design eye.

For something that commands attention, we have sconces with as many as five lights. They will have a dramatic impact on any entryway, bathroom or living space. Be prepared for plenty of comments and compliments. Many finishes are available for our sconces, from antique satins and rusts to modern glittering golds as well as metallic copper and silver tones. For a dazzling display, consider Tiffany sconces. Inspired by the artistry of the revered Louis Comfort Tiffany, they will deliver translucent, gleaming rainbows of light wherever you install them.

What Lighting Works Best?

Every type of light can serve its own purpose. Point your shade up to create a warm glow ideal for living rooms and bedrooms. Use direct light from wall sconces as a spotlight to showcase a shelf display. Install a swing-arm fixture that can rotate your light in your workspace to either maximize or dim the amount of light around you.

Utilizing candle wall sconces with dimmers or frosted glass shades can set the mood in the dining room. An LED wall sconce will last much longer than other lights and doesn't produce as much heat, so it is perfect for flush-mount lighting.
