A 1-light wall sconce with a matte black steel cone shade in exotic purple, built for bathrooms and vanity areas that need flattering task light.
The Orwell collection takes its cues from vintage factory lighting: Exposed mechanical details, a utilitarian silhouette, and an open-top cone shade that lets light spill upward for extra ambient glow. The matte black finish is deep and non-reflective, while the exotic purple shade interior adds a bold, contemporary accent. It is damp location rated, so it handles the occasional moisture of a bathroom or laundry room.
Best for
- Bathrooms and powder rooms, mounted beside or above a mirror for dedicated task lighting
- Vanity areas where you want a single directional light rather than a wide bar
- Laundry rooms and covered porches with occasional moisture exposure
- Industrial, transitional, or vintage-inspired interiors that can carry a pop of purple
Not ideal for
- Outdoor locations with direct rain or snow exposure - this fixture is indoor use only
- Spaces where you need broad, even illumination - a single 100W sconce is accent and task light, not a primary room light
- Rooms with very low ceilings if you want the shade to sit flush - it projects 8.5 in from the wall
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a 100W-equivalent LED you get roughly 1,600 lumens - enough for focused task lighting at a vanity or reading nook, but not enough to light a whole room on its own. Lumen output is not specified by the manufacturer because the bulb is not included.
Light color and feel
Color temperature is set by your bulb choice. A 2700K-3000K warm white bulb flatters skin tones and pairs well with the matte black and purple finish. The fixture is dimmable, so you can pair it with a compatible dimmer switch to soften the light for evening use.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions are 7.5 in wide x 8.5 in deep x 9.88 in high, with an 8.5 in extension from the wall and a 4.88 in round backplate. The 9.88 in height and 8.5 in projection suit standard 8-9 ft bathroom ceilings. It mounts vertically and is hardwired.

Frequently asked
Is the bulb included? No. It requires one E26 medium base A19 bulb, max 100W, sold separately.
Is it dimmable, and what dimmer should I use? Yes, it is dimmable. Use a dimmer switch compatible with your chosen bulb - LED bulbs may require an LED-rated dimmer.
Can I install this in a bathroom or outdoors? It is damp location rated and indoor use only, so it works in bathrooms, laundry rooms, and covered porches with occasional moisture. Do not install where it is exposed to direct rain or snow.
What's the warranty? 1 year limited.
How does the matte black finish compare to polished black? Matte black has a non-reflective, smooth sheen that reads more industrial and hides fingerprints better than a glossy finish.
