The vertical ribbing in the glass scatters the light sideways and takes the hard edge off the bulb, which is what makes a small clear shade workable at eye level. The gold brass finish is warm rather than bright. Hardwired for an E-base bulb up to 60 watts, it works singly beside a doorway or as a pair flanking a mirror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-lifestyle-1.jpg?v=1788411817\" alt=\"Ribbed glass sconce on walnut panelling above an open book and desk\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-lifestyle-2.jpg?v=1788411817\" alt=\"Ribbed glass brass sconce on a green wall beside a window and armchair\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-lifestyle-3.jpg?v=1788411817\" alt=\"Brass ribbed glass wall light above a teak bench and abstract artwork\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-lifestyle-4.jpg?v=1788411817\" alt=\"Ribbed glass sconce in a cream panelled room beside a tufted armchair\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003eWall Sconce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003eGlass and metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003eGold brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eShade Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003eRibbed glass cylinder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003e5 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003e9.5 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eNumber of Lights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eMaximum Wattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003e60 W, bulb not included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003ePower Source\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003eHardwired\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.6715%;\"\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.9675%;\"\u003e3.5 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-dimensions.jpg?v=1788411817\" alt=\"Drawing showing sconce width 5 inches and height 9.5 inches\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"oca-con\"\u003eRibbed glass is a practical solution dressed as a decorative one. A plain clear shade at eye level puts a bright filament straight into your line of sight. Ribbing refracts that light across the surface of the glass instead, so the shade reads as a bright textured column rather than a hot point. It is why the detail turns up on so many vintage fittings and why it still works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVintage Brass Wall Sconce Size And Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fixture is 5 inches wide and 9.5 inches high, with a single light. That is compact enough to sit either side of a mirror without crowding it, and small enough that a pair does not overwhelm a narrow wall. Shipping weight is 3.5 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is metal in a gold brass finish and the shade is ribbed glass. In the photography the finish reads as a warm satin gold rather than a bright polished brass, and the glass is opaque enough to soften the bulb while still catching light along each rib. The backplate is a shallow curved disc, so the fitting sits close to the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBulb Choice And Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sconce takes a screw base bulb rated up to 60 watts and no bulb is supplied. Because the ribbed glass is translucent rather than opaque, the shape of the bulb is partly visible through it. A compact frosted bulb will look tidiest; a long filament bulb will show its shape through the ribs, which some people want and some do not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no switch on the fitting, so it runs from a wall switch on the circuit. The specification does not describe the fixture as dimmable, so plan any dimming around the bulb and the circuit rather than the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFinish Care And Placement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specification lists the finish as gold and makes no claim about a protective lacquer or about resistance to fingerprints, so treat it as an ordinary brass toned finish. Clean it with a dry soft cloth. Avoid metal polishes, which will cut through a plated finish rather than restore it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact size makes this a flanking fixture more than a standalone one. A single unit works beside a doorway or above a small console. A matched pair either side of a mirror is where the proportions really work, because at 5 inches wide neither one dominates the mirror between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fixture is hardwired to a standard wall box behind the backplate. If you are fitting a pair, set both boxes to the same height from the floor rather than measuring from the ceiling, which is rarely as level as it looks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hurbane Home","offers":[{"title":"Gold \/ W 5\" x H 9.5\"","offer_id":48706416115906,"sku":"HH71025AS3079-1","price":96.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/1879\/8922\/files\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce-main.jpg?v=1788411817","url":"https:\/\/hurbanehome.com\/products\/ribbed-glass-brass-wall-sconce","provider":"Hurbane Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
