Lotus Glass Wall Sconce Adjustable Brass Arm Five Colours

An adjustable wall sconce is worth more than a fixed one in exactly one situation: when you do not yet know where the light needs to go. Beside a bed, over a chair, next to a mirror, the useful angle changes with the furniture. A rotatable head means the fixture can follow that rather than being committed on the day it was wired in.

Hot Worked Lotus Glass And Colour Options

The shade is made by a hot glass process and formed into a scalloped petal shape. In the photography the petals are pronounced, with the rim breaking into distinct lobes rather than a smooth curve, and the light picks out the edge of each one. Five colours are listed: green, amber, black, clear and white.

The clear and smoke toned versions leave the bulb visible through the glass, so a decorative bulb is worth the outlay there. The white version is opaque and hides the bulb entirely. The product copy supplied with this fixture describes the shape as tulip inspired while the product name calls it a lotus. Both describe the same scalloped petal form shown in the photographs.

The Rotatable Head And How It Helps

The head rotates on the arm, which lets you point the shade down onto a surface or turn it toward the wall to bounce light back into the room. Turned down it works as a reading light. Turned to the wall it becomes an ambient fitting with no direct glare at all.

The specification describes the adjustment as a rotatable head rather than a full swing arm, so expect the shade angle to change while the position on the wall stays fixed. Plan the mounting height for the job you most want it to do, because the arm does not extend or fold.

Switching, Bulbs And Installation

Control is by a push button switch on the fitting itself, which is unusual for a wall sconce and genuinely useful beside a bed, where reaching a wall switch means getting up. The specification is explicit that the fixture is not dimmable, so the switch is on and off only.

It takes an E27 base bulb rated to a maximum of 40 watts, and no bulb is supplied. E27 is the standard large screw fitting. Weight is 3.1 pounds. The fixture mounts to the wall on a round backplate, and because the switch is on the fitting rather than the wall, position it somewhere you can comfortably reach from wherever you will be sitting or lying.
