A short-arm wall sconce in the language of classic American bathroom and dressing-room lighting — a stepped-medallion backplate, a turned brass arm with bell detail, and a frosted milk-glass dome shade casting soft diffused light. The body is drop-forged from sheet brass for substance and longevity, then plated and finished by hand.
The milk-glass dome diffuses light evenly without glare, ideal for vanity mirrors and grooming spaces. Available in five finishes — Polished Brass, Matte Black, Chrome, Polished Nickel, and White — and in single, double, or triple-head configurations for vanities of every width. Suited to powder rooms, primary bath vanities, hallway pairs, and dressing rooms in traditional, transitional, and Hollywood Regency interiors.

Finish — Choose at Checkout
Polished Brass
Warm honey gold — classic American transitional and traditional vanities.
Matte Black
Soft matte black — modern and high-contrast bathrooms with marble or stone.
Chrome
Bright cool silver with mirror polish — fresh in modern and minimalist baths.
Polished Nickel
Warmer silver tone than chrome — flattering with cream marble and warm wood.
White
Clean satin white — disappears into pale walls for a quieter installation.
Drop-forged brass & hand-finished plating. The body is forged from sheet brass and finished by hand — minor variation in plating tone is part of the artisanal character. Each milk-glass dome is mouth-blown and may carry subtle shape and wall-thickness differences typical of hand-blown glass.

Mounting
Hardwired to wall junction box · stepped-medallion backplate covers most US single-gang boxes
Hardwires to a standard wall junction box — professional installation recommended.
Stepped-medallion backplate covers most US single-gang boxes; verify before drilling.
For bathroom vanity use, install at 75–80″ above finished floor (centered above mirror) for the 1-head, or center the 2/3-head bar above the vanity midpoint.
Fits E14 candelabra-base bulbs — supply your own warm-white LED candle bulbs (one per head).
Suitable for general bathroom installations away from direct shower spray.
Clean glass and metal with a soft dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners on plated finishes.
For a vanity under 24″ wide, the 1-head (centered above the mirror) works best. For 24–48″ vanities, the 2-head (∅ 14″ bar) — centered above the basin. For 48–72″ double vanities, the 3-head (∅ 18.5″ bar) — or a pair of single-heads flanking each mirror. Confirm scale against your vanity layout.
Is the Chart sconce dimmable? +
Yes, with the right bulb. Each head takes an E14 candelabra-base bulb. Install dimmable LED candle bulbs on a TRIAC wall dimmer and the sconce dims smoothly. Warm white 2700K–3000K is recommended for flattering grooming light.
Can I use it in a bathroom over a shower? +
The Chart is suitable for general bathroom installations away from direct shower spray — for example over a vanity, mirror, or in a powder room. Avoid placing it directly above a shower or tub where steam and water spray make sustained contact. For wet-zone installations, please contact us.
Which finish should I pick? +
Polished Brass suits warm transitional and traditional baths with cream or wood tones. Matte Black anchors modern, marble-and-stone bathrooms. Chrome reads cool and modern; Polished Nickel is warmer than chrome and pairs well with cream marble. White disappears into pale walls for a quieter installation.
Why drop-forged brass instead of cast or spun? +
Drop forging compresses sheet brass under high pressure to produce a denser, stronger body than cast or spun alternatives — better at holding plating long-term and less prone to dents. The trade-off is more weight and higher production cost, which is why drop-forged brass is the standard for premium American bathroom sconces.
Product features
Hand-finished in natural materials — alabaster, marble, brass, and blown glass — so slight variation in veining, grain, or patina between pieces is normal and expected.
Hardwired or plug-in per listing; check the individual product page for the exact wiring type and included cord length.
Compatible with standard dimmer switches unless the listing notes otherwise.
Bulb base type (e.g. E12, E26) is listed on each product page; bulbs are not included unless stated.
Select pieces are made to order — see the product page for current lead time before ordering.
Materials and care
Alabaster, marble & stone: dust with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water and household cleaners — they can etch or stain natural stone.
Brass & metal finishes: wipe with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which will strip the patina.
Fabric shades: spot clean only with a dry cloth.
Glass: apply a mild glass cleaner to a soft cloth, not directly to the fixture.
Always turn off and let the fixture cool before cleaning.
Keep fixtures away from direct moisture unless the listing specifies it's rated for outdoor or wet locations.
Styling tips
Wall sconces: mount at 60–66″ from the floor to the center of the fixture; space paired sconces 24–30″ apart.
Pendants: hang 30–36″ above a table or counter surface, adjusting for ceiling height.
Chandeliers: as a general sizing guide, allow roughly 2.5–3″ of fixture width for every foot of room width.
Warmer bulb temperatures (2700K–3000K) bring out the tone in natural materials like alabaster and brass.
Pairing with a dimmer switch gives you more control over ambiance in living and dining spaces.
