One Light Wall Sconce (2024)

FAQs

Can you hang a single sconce? ›

While you can use a single sconce to highlight a small corner or brighten up a sliver of wall between two doors, most sconces are installed in numbers instead. Small numbers of sconces should be installed at the same height, but larger groups can be varied in their placement to create a more artistic design.

Are wall sconces dated? ›

Wall sconces are not inherently outdated; in fact, they can be timeless and versatile lighting fixtures. The popularity of design elements often depends on current trends and individual preferences.

What is the difference between a lantern and a sconce? ›

Outdoors, lanterns will mostly always be hung in some form, but they can also be mounted to the wall, as mentioned earlier. Wall sconces, on the other hand, are light fixtures that attach to a wall. Because a sconce uses the wall for support, the light is usually directed upwards or downwards depending on the fixture.

Are wall sconces still popular? ›

Wall sconces have been around for centuries but they never go out of style. They are a versatile lighting option that can add ambiance to any room in your home. Whether you are looking for a statement piece or a functional fixture, wall sconces can meet your needs.

Do sconces need to be in pairs? ›

Sconces don't always have to come in pairs! Individually, a sconce can be great statement piece. If layering sconces with other lighting such as table lamps, you can adjust the standard height of 65 – 70 inches to fit the specific needs of your space.

What are the rules for hanging sconces? ›

Frequently Asked Questions about Sconces

Wall sconces typically range between 6 and 7 feet from the floor, while hallway sconces usually fall within the 6 to 8 feet range. The height should be determined by factors such as room size and fixture dimensions to ensure optimal lighting without overpowering brightness.

What light fixtures are outdated? ›

6 Outdated Lighting Trends to Skip in 2024, According to...
  • Recessed Lighting.
  • Builder Grade Fixtures.
  • Matching Lights.
  • Small Pendants.
  • Bath Bar Lighting.
  • Muted Lighting.
Jan 4, 2024

Should wall sconces point up or down? ›

If you want to light a larger room, upward-facing lights will be more successful at diffusing light, whereas downward-facing lights will suffice if you only want to light a smaller area.

Why is it called a sconce? ›

Both kinds of sconce come from the Old French esconse, "lantern or hiding place," with the Latin root abscondere, "to hide."

What is the purpose of a wall sconce light? ›

A sconce or wall light is a decorative light fixture that is mounted to a wall. The sconce is a very old form of fixture, historically used with candles and oil lamps. They can provide general room lighting, and are common in hallways and corridors, but they may be mostly decorative.

Why use wall sconces? ›

While wall sconces should not be the only light source in a room, they can enhance the overall lighting design of your home. You can highlight artwork or architectural features, and enhance the lighting in a bathroom, dining room, hallway, or entryway.

Do you need an electrician for wall sconces? ›

So now you know how to install wall sconces easily in your own home without an electrician. This is a great way to add some additional lighting without the expense. The entire project cost $60, and took less than 2 hours from start to finish.

Are candle wall sconces still in style? ›
