A blunt geometric block with an angled opening, the Wood Angled Shade Wall Sconce mixes natural wood with a painted metal shade and leaves it at that. The cut of the shade aims output down and outward rather than back at the wall, which makes the piece practical for reading as well as decorative. It measures 9.1 inches wide, 5.1 inches deep, and 7.5 inches high (23 x 13 x 19 cm).

Because the shade is directional, light lands as a defined wedge on a page or a wall plane instead of filling the whole room, a useful quality at a bedside where someone else is asleep. It takes an E26 or E27 bulb, so brightness and color temperature are entirely down to the lamp you fit. Metal finishes are white, black, grey, or green, each paired with wood color.

It fits headboard walls, hallway runs, and living room corners that need a low accent above furniture, and a matched pair at equal heights balances a wall without a large fixture. The sconce mounts to the wall and connects to an external wall light switch, which is not included, so treat it as a hardwired installation. Install in dry indoor locations only, away from damp or steamy rooms.
