How to choose your orange wall sconce
The right location for the room
The location of a wall sconce depends on the lighting effect you want. In a living room, it lights the walls with a warm, pleasant light. In an office or a work room, an adjustable model is ideal for precise lighting.
Above a sofa or near a painting, a living room wall sconce sets up this ambient light, while an office wall sconce concentrates the beam on the work surface.
Outdoors, use only a sconce designed for this purpose, with a suitable IP rating. The IP rating of each outdoor wall sconce is shown on its product page.
The essential technical criteria
A good wall sconce combines functionality and design. The lamp holder, the light source and the finish determine the quality of the lighting. An LED bulb is recommended for its energy efficiency and long lifespan. Models in steel or orange glass last a long time.
Some models are adjustable or can be aimed, for flexible use depending on the needs of the day.
Matching colors and materials
Pairing an orange wall sconce with neutral elements, such as white, gray or light wood, creates a balanced harmony. An orange vintage pendant light or a matching table lamp completes the decor.
Combining orange glass with natural materials strengthens the style and the visual consistency. An orange designer sconce with a matte finish softens the light, for a warm atmosphere. Discover our pendant lights.
