Why Select a Modern Wall Sconce to Light Your Home

Although the traditional sconce brings an image of torches and candles, wall sconces provide a unique fixture for modern decoration that can be applied differently throughout the home. The unique characteristics of a sconce - mounted midway to three fourths the height of a wall - allow you to direct your lighting with a focused and minimalistic style in virtually any area of any room.

There are many applications for wall sconces in your home. With the simplicity of installing multiple sconces, you can create symmetry within the home and consistent lighting along hallways. Depending on the purpose of the area, a modern wall sconce can be used to highlight furniture, illuminate openness in communal areas, or provide utilitarian value with specific lighting for tasks that require light such as cooking or reading.

How to Choose the Right Indoor Wall Sconce

To find the wall sconce that fits your need start with the area of your home that you intend to illuminate. Is this a hallway, an entryway, or a bedroom? Do you intend to draw attention to specific areas of the room using contemporary wall sconces with fabric or glass shades or open the ambiance of your room with widespread, diffused lighting?

At YLighting you will find a variety of wall sconce styles to choose from so that you can find the perfect match to fit the design, color, and decor of your room. Browse through crystal, brass, brushed nickel, glass, and bronze to find the finish that compliments your decorative style. Our wall lighting options range mainly among mid-century modern, contemporary, and industrial styles.
