Hester Wall Sconce 26", Modern Brass

Yes, this fixture offers the ultimate flexibility with a Dual-Installation design, allowing it to be either hard-wired into a junction box or used as a Plug-in sconce. The included 72-inch clear/silver cord and in-line On/Off switch make it a perfect solution for renters or bedside areas where existing wiring isn't available. With a generous 18.5-inch extension and a height of 25.63 inches, it provides a significant architectural presence. If you choose to hard-wire the unit, the cord can be removed, and you can install it without the cord cover for a sleeker 20.5-inch height profile.

This fixture is fully dimmable when hard-wired to a compatible wall dimmer or used with a dimmable bulb and a plug-in dimmer. While the recommended bulb shape is a standard A19, the socket requires an E12 Candelabra Base Bulb (60W Max). We suggest using a dimmable LED bulb in a warm color temperature (2700K) to highlight the soft texture of the White Linen shade. The shade beautifully diffuses the light, creating a warm, glare-free glow that is ideal for reading nooks, bedrooms, or home offices where ambient comfort is a priority.

The elongated backplate measures 4.38 inches wide by 14.88 inches high, providing a sleek, modern aesthetic that easily covers a standard vertical junction box. Its slim 0.75-inch depth ensures it sits relatively flush against the wall, supporting the 18.5-inch extension arm securely. Because the total weight is only 1.5 lbs, it is lightweight enough for easy installation but has enough vertical scale to act as a primary design element. We recommend measuring your vertical wall clearance—especially if installing above a nightstand—to ensure the 25.63-inch total height fits comfortably within your layout.
