Bedroom wall sconces

Bedroom Wall Sconces

Mount a pair of wall sconces either side of the bed and the bedside tables stay clear. Mistiva's battery sconces need no wiring: they charge by USB-C, run plugged in or on battery, and switch off on a timer after you fall asleep. From $175.

"The quality is exceptional. These look like high-end designer pieces you'd find in a luxury hotel. Installation was straightforward for our electrician."

Battery, plug-in or hardwired by the bed?

Battery when there is no wiring behind the bed: one or two screws, about 15 minutes. Plugged in when an outlet is close: the 10-foot (3 m) USB-C cable keeps the battery charged. Hardwired when the wall is open for a renovation: 120V and 700 lumens, enough to read by.

Which light color suits a bedroom?

Warm 3000K for evenings; neutral 4000K and cool 6000K for getting ready. AMBIO switches between all three from the remote, and every tone dims.

Can a sconce work as a reading light?

Hardwired AMBIO and Dream give 700 lumens, about a 60W bulb, enough to read by. The battery models give a softer ambient glow for winding down.

What about the timer?

The remote's auto-off switches the sconce off after 15, 30 or 60 minutes.

Frequently asked

Do bedroom wall sconces need an electrician?

Battery and plug-in sconces do not: they hang on a bracket held by one or two screws. Hardwired sconces connect to a junction box and need a licensed electrician.

Yes. Mistiva's battery sconces run from the outlet through their 10-foot (3 m) USB-C cable, and keep working on battery when unplugged.

Are wall sconces good for reading in bed?

Hardwired AMBIO and Dream give 700 lumens, about a 60W bulb, enough to read by. Battery models are made for a softer ambient glow.

How long does a battery bedroom sconce last?

Up to 10 days on one 5-hour USB-C charge in ambient use.

Can a bedside sconce turn itself off?

Yes. The remote's auto-off timer switches it off after 15, 30 or 60 minutes.

The studio

I'm Jack. I'm in Miami. I usually answer the phone.

Our lights are designed with intent. No visible bulbs. No bright lights in your eyes. Controlled lighting exactly where you need it. Art when they are off and they set the perfect ambiance when on. These lights are not on Amazon. Not in stores. Not through a distributor. That is on purpose. It lets us hold the quality, the finish, and the overall customer experience.
