Dar Ray Single Wall Sconce

How high should I install a wall sconce above a nightstand or bedside?

For bedside use, wall sconces are typically installed about 55-65 inches from the floor and around 6-12 inches above the top of the nightstand for optimal lighting without glare.

Does this wall sconce need a junction box or can it be plugged in?

Some wall sconces are hardwired and require a junction box, while others come with a plug-in option. Check the product description to see if it's suitable for your setup.

Is this light fixture good for small spaces like apartment hallways or studio rooms?

Yes, compact single wall sconces are ideal for small spaces where floor or table lighting isn't practical, offering both illumination and style without taking up space.

Can I use this sconce with a smart bulb for voice control?

As long as the socket supports standard bulb bases, most wall sconces are compatible with smart bulbs, allowing you to control the light with voice assistants or apps.

Does the color of the glass shade affect the light output?

Yes, tinted or smoked glass shades can soften or dim the light slightly, which creates a warm ambiance but may reduce brightness compared to clear glass options.

Is this sconce safe to use near fabric like curtains or beds?

When installed properly and used with the recommended bulb wattage, sconces are safe near fabric. Just ensure there is enough clearance to prevent overheating.

Will this fixture match modern, vintage, or industrial decor styles?

Single wall sconces with a blend of brass and glass often suit a range of styles — from industrial lofts to vintage homes and even modern minimalist interiors.
