A 1-light swing arm wall sconce from the Bristol collection, finished in polished chrome with a matching metal shade, designed for bedside reading or living room accent lighting in damp-rated spaces.
The Bristol swing arm sconce combines industrial and farmhouse styling with a polished chrome finish and a cone-shaped metal shade. Made from steel and cast brass, this fixture offers a sturdy, adjustable arm that extends 13.25 inches from the wall, making it ideal for task lighting. The Ballston design fits seamlessly into various decor styles, with heavy cast components for a contemporary look.
Best for
- Bedrooms with a nightstand or side table, mounted as a reading light beside the bed
- Living rooms or dens where adjustable task lighting is needed for seating areas
- Damp-rated locations such as covered patios or bathrooms (away from direct water spray)
- Hallways or entryways as accent lighting with a vintage bulb
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright overhead illumination – this is a focused task/accent light
- Wet locations exposed to rain or direct water spray
- Rooms with very low ceilings where the swing arm may be obstructed
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb used (not included). With a recommended ST64 vintage bulb (60W equivalent), expect around 800 lumens – similar to a standard incandescent bulb, suitable for reading or accent lighting. For dimmer ambient light, use a lower-wattage bulb.
Light color and feel
Light color is determined by the bulb. A 2700K-3000K warm white bulb creates a cozy, inviting glow that complements the polished chrome finish. The metal shade directs light downward and outward, reducing glare.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 7.5 inches wide by 13 inches high, with a 13.25-inch extension from the wall. The backplate measures 4.5 inches wide by 7.88 inches high. Suitable for standard 8-foot ceilings; the swing arm allows flexible positioning.
