Wall Sconce | OSKAR (Ceramic)

The matte ceramic, slightly rounded, catches the light and takes on a warm tint as soon as the bulb is lit. Its simple shape also makes cleaning easier.

This ceramic wall sconce turns a simple point of light into a soft, enveloping wall sculpture. Its flared shape recalls the plaster sconces of grand houses, in a more contemporary reading.

Understated and rounded, it finds its place in a modern or minimalist interior. It also pairs well with a wall with moldings. Its length of 34 cm gives it a real presence on the wall.

Indirect lighting upward and downward

When lit, Oskar covers the wall with 2 halos, one toward the ceiling, the other toward the floor. This indirect lighting suits rooms where you want a calm atmosphere.

The bulb sits inside the shell. The light glides across the wall rather than hitting the eye directly. The atmosphere stays soft, even in a dimly lit room.

For a muted atmosphere, prefer a warm white, which highlights the texture of the ceramic. In a passageway, a neutral white ensures good visibility, without losing the indirect effect.

A white wall sconce to paint

Mounted on white paint, this white wall sconce blends into the wall. Only the beams of light remain visible.

The brand states that the ceramic housing can be painted with ordinary wall paint. You can thus match it exactly to the shade of the wall, or choose a contrast.

As a pair, it frames a piece of furniture or a mirror and makes an elegant symmetry. In a series, it gives rhythm to a long wall. Then keep regular spacing and identical bulbs.
