Wall Sconce | HESTIA (Black)

The Hestia wall sconce by Sollux Lighting is a light fixture made of 2 curved black steel blades, stacked and slotted with fine horizontal openings, that lights upward and downward. It measures 23 cm high by 8.5 cm wide and takes one G9 bulb.

A black wall sconce made of blades and slots

The front is made of 2 curved steel plates, offset from one another. They wrap around the light source like a miniature screen. This 2-layer design gives the fixture depth.

On this black wall sconce, the slots let fine streaks of light through that bring the black to life. The curved edges cut the light softly, far from the sharp edges of cubic sconces.

When switched off, it remains an attractive graphic object, with a subtle play of shadows between the 2 plates. Against a white wall, its silhouette stands out strongly.

Subdued ambient lighting

The upper and lower beams, combined with the luminous lines of the slots, create ambient lighting for evenings when you prefer indirect light. The wall becomes the surface that carries the light.

The source stays hidden behind the steel. You are not troubled by glare, even in a room where you sit facing the wall.

On an anthracite wall, it is mainly the flashes of light that stand out. Surrounded by other lamps, the sconce adds relief to the wall. Switched on alone, it is enough to create an intimate atmosphere.

Where to install this sconce for a bedroom or living room?

In a living room, near a reading corner, Hestia extends the black metal of shelves and furniture legs. In a pair or a series, it creates a strong decorative rhythm. Its lines suit a modern or minimalist interior.

This bedroom sconce is mounted above the bedside tables. It brings a soft glow and a graphic touch to the head of the bed. Each sleeper thus keeps a gentle light on their own side.

In a dining room with dark walls, a pair framing a sideboard creates a cozy atmosphere for dinners with friends. In a kitchen, this wall sconce dresses the wall of the dining nook with a more intimate light.

Which G9 bulb for this sconce?

Hestia takes 1 LED G9 bulb, not included. A compact capsule fits easily between the 2 blades. A warm white warms the black, while a neutral white gives a more contrasted look.

Check that the blades are perfectly vertical before tightening, because the horizontal slots make the slightest misalignment visible. Also leave space above and below the sconce. The fixture is rated IP20, so it is intended for dry rooms only. The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician.

For maintenance, switch off the power and let the bulb cool. Dust the black steel with a dry cloth and run a soft brush through the slots.
