Brimming with classic character, this one-light outdoor wall sconce is perfect for casting a warm glow over any alfresco space. Made from powder-coated steel and suited for wet spaces, this weather- and rust-resistant fixture features a clean-lined backplate and a traditional curved silhouette. Its clear crackled glass shade gives it a touch of antique inspiration, while it is metal wire outer cage offers a nod to nautical style. This luminary accommodates one 60 w medium-base incandescent bulb (not included).
I love the design and I’d say it’s a quality piece overall. I deducted one star because assembly isn’t as easy as it should be. In order to prevent water from getting into the base where the bulb goes, the glass globe is sandwiched in between two rubber grommets, one above the glass globe and one below. On paper that sounds easy but one has to generate rather significant force to provide the requisite threading necessary to seal it up with the decorative nuts. And unless you get the four thread ends exactly right where the holes are—a near impossible feat—you’ll end up scratching the base. My description above will likely make little sense until you actually have this unit in hand so here’s a Cliff Notes version. Get a second person to help.. Robert. Lakeville, MN. Thu Jul 30 2020
