Swing Arm Wall Sconce with an Iron Cone Shade
Reach is the whole point of this one. The arm folds at the wall and again at the shade, and it comes in four lengths. The shortest reaches about a foot. The longest reaches two feet, which is far enough to get the light over a bed or a deep armchair. When you are done it folds back close to the wall. The shade is iron, 7 in across and cone shaped, so the light goes down onto the page. It hardwires in and takes an E26 or E27 bulb.

The reason people buy a swing arm rather than a fixed sconce is nearly always the same. The wall is not where the light needs to be. A bed sits away from the wall. An armchair sits at an angle. A desk has a monitor in the way. A folding arm bridges that gap and then gets out of the way again. Four lengths means you can match the reach to the gap instead of hoping.
Choosing Between the Four Arm Lengths
The arm is made of two sections joined by an elbow. The shortest option is 6 in plus 6 in, so it reaches about 12 in from the wall when straight. Next is 8 in plus 8 in at around 16 in of reach.
The third is 12 in plus 6 in, an unusual pairing that gives a long first section and a short second one. It swings wide but keeps the shade close in. The longest is 12 in plus 12 in, reaching about 24 in. That is the one for a bed with side tables, or a chair that sits well off the wall.
All four use the same 7 in cone shade and the same 5 in backplate. Only the arm changes, so the fixture looks the same on the wall whichever reach you order.
Fitting One Beside a Bed
Put the backplate about 30 in above the mattress and roughly in line with the edge of the bed. From there the arm does the rest. Folded back it sits close to the wall and takes up almost no space above a side table.
The shade is 7 in across, which is generous for a reading light. It covers an open book without spilling much light sideways onto a sleeping partner. Fitting one on each side and wiring them to separate switches is the arrangement most people end up wanting.
Black or Rust, and Fitting Details
Black is the plain option. It reads industrial and sits quietly against a pale wall or a dark one. Rust is a warm reddish brown with visible texture, closer to aged copper than to paint. It suits timber, brick and farmhouse rooms and stands out more.
Both are the same fixture in the same four arm lengths. The backplate is 5 in wide and covers a standard junction box. The sconce is hardwired with no plug or cord. The socket takes an E26 or E27 bulb and none is supplied. The metal cone is open at the bottom, so a frosted bulb is easier on the eye than a clear one. Rated for 110V-120V and 220V-240V, and about 3.2 lb.
