Where Does the Tear Drop Wall Sconce Work Best?
This sconce brings functional beauty to hallways, dining rooms, or flanking bathroom mirrors where its downward-facing teardrop shade casts warm, focused light. The oil rubbed bronze finish pairs beautifully with both vintage-inspired interiors and transitional spaces, and works especially well alongside other pieces from our metal wall art collection or coordinating fixtures from our wall sconces range. Each fixture is handcrafted with subtle markings and tonal variations in the hand-blown glass that give it distinct character -- these imperfections define the artisan quality of the piece. Pair it with decorative Edison bulbs to highlight the European streetlamp inspiration and create a focal point in any room where you want to add character-rich lighting.
How Should I Care for the Glass and Metal Finish?
Maintain the sconce by gently wiping both glass and metal surfaces with a soft, dry cloth or chamois -- never use harsh or abrasive cleaners that could damage the oil rubbed bronze finish or scratch the hand-blown glass. The antiqued brass ring accent requires the same gentle care to preserve its patina over time.
