The clear basket weave glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare while maintaining a warm glow. Use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb for a warm, cozy ambiance that complements the polished nickel finish.

The lamp extends 12.44 inches from the wall and has a shade diameter of 5.88 inches. The backplate measures 4.5 x 7.88 inches. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; ensure the swing arm has clearance to move freely.
