Nordic Pumpkin Wall Lamp | Modern Frosted Glass and Metal Sconce In Three Bold Shade Colours

A ribbed pumpkin shade is a rounder, softer form than the cylinders and cones most sconces settle for, and the ridges give it a shadow line that changes as you move past it. That is what stops a small wall light reading as a blank shape stuck to the plaster in daylight, which is how most compact sconces end up looking once the novelty of a brand new fitting has worn right off.

Frosted glass over coloured resin and polished metal is the combination doing the work. The frosting means the E27 bulb never shows as a hard point, the colour sits in the body rather than being printed on it, and the metal keeps the whole thing feeling built rather than moulded. Three colourways are offered in warm or cold white.

Buy it now for a bedside, a study or a hallway that needs personality rather than another neutral fitting. It projects twenty centimetres from the wall, stands twenty one high, and takes an E27 bulb up to sixty watts, which is not included. This is a hardwired fixture and should be installed by a qualified electrician to local electrical code, with the circuit isolated at the breaker first.
