Wall Sconce | FENIKS

The Feniks wall sconce by Sollux Lighting is a light fixture made of wood and frosted glass, whose upright stands out against 2 offset glass plates. It measures 43 cm long, 12 cm wide and 30 cm high, takes an E27 bulb and comes in wenge, natural wood or white.

A wood and frosted glass wall sconce

On this wooden wall sconce, the upright stands out in the center like a silhouette, while the glass plates extend past it on each side. The offset panels give the whole piece depth.

When lit, the sconce turns its plates into glowing surfaces. The light passes through the frosted glass and also spreads across the wall around them.

At 12 cm wide, Feniks stays close to the wall. It suits hallways and passageways, where a protruding sconce would be in the way. When off, it brings a bare wall to life like a small contemporary relief.

Wenge, natural wood or white: which finish to choose?

The wenge upright forms a dark, clean line against the glass. It is the most contrasting finish, very much at home on a gray wall or a light plaster.

Natural wood, bright and warm, makes a Scandinavian wall sconce that goes well with light furniture and raw cotton fabrics. White makes the sconce more discreet: you can barely make out anything but a play of glowing plates.

Within a single room, keep the same finish for all the sconces. The repetition reinforces the effect of a series.

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

In a living room, a pair of sconces on either side of a sideboard or a large mirror frames the piece of furniture. This living room sconce then creates elegant ambient lighting.

In a bedroom, placed above a nightstand, this wall sconce replaces the bedside lamp and frees up the tabletop. In a hallway, several sconces spaced at regular intervals set a rhythm along the passage.

In a dining room, a sconce next to a dresser highlights the displayed objects with a soft light. For a symmetrical effect, align 2 sconces at the same height and at an equal distance from the piece of furniture they frame.

Which E27 bulb for this sconce?

Feniks takes 1 LED E27 bulb of 15 W maximum, not included. The bulb stays hidden behind the wood: you can look at the sconce head-on without glare. A warm white brings out the grain and the shade of the wood.

In the evening, turn off the main lighting and keep only the sconces. The glass panels are enough to give the room a soft glow. 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. Clean the glass with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dust the upright dry to preserve its finish.
