A 1-light wall sconce from the Orwell collection, finished in matte black with a matte white glass shade, designed for damp-rated indoor spaces like entryways and hallways.
The Orwell sconce blends industrial style with modern versatility. Its heavy cast steel and brass construction gives it a sturdy, contemporary look, while the matte white cone-shaped glass shade softens the light. The matte black finish pairs well with both vintage and transitional decor. Customize the look with interchangeable shades from the Franklin and Ballston collections.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways, mounted at eye level for a welcoming glow
- Living rooms and dining rooms as accent lighting alongside artwork or mirrors
- Damp-rated bathrooms (vanity areas or near sinks) where moisture resistance is needed
- Covered patios or porches protected from direct rain
- Industrial or modern farmhouse interiors seeking a vintage-inspired fixture
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 ft, as the sconce extends 8.69 in from the wall
- Direct outdoor exposure to rain or sprinklers (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
- Primary room lighting in large spaces over 12x12 ft without additional fixtures
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. The sconce accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W incandescent equivalent. With a 60W equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens—similar to a traditional 60W bulb, suitable for accent or ambient lighting in a hallway or bathroom. For a dimmer effect, use a 40W equivalent (about 450 lumens).
Light color and feel
The matte white glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare and creating a warm, even glow. For a cozy, vintage feel, pair with a ST64-shaped bulb (recommended) in warm white (2700K-3000K). The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 8.38 in wide, 9.25 in high, and extends 8.69 in from the wall. The round backplate is 4.5 in diameter and 0.75 in deep. Mounting center to top is 2.5 in. Works well in standard 8-9 ft ceilings; for lower ceilings, ensure adequate clearance.
