Discover our kitchen wall sconces, ideal over the sink, open shelving or a countertop. They add task lighting where there are no upper cabinets and bring a decorative touch to the kitchen.
Where to install a kitchen sconce?
Over a sink in front of a window, a centred sconce is a great alternative to a pendant. With open shelving, a swing-arm sconce or picture light illuminates dishes and the countertop. Choose a finish that echoes the faucet or hardware for a cohesive look.
Frequently asked questions
Can a sconce replace a pendant over the sink?
Yes. A sconce centred over the sink or window lights the work surface well and keeps the ceiling clear.
How high should a kitchen sconce be mounted?
Over a sink or countertop, the bottom of the sconce usually sits about 2 ft 6 in above the surface.
Which finish holds up best in a kitchen?
Black, nickel and lacquered brass finishes clean easily with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
