Nordic Vintage Glass Wall Sconce | Striped Round Disc Light For Hallways and Bedroom Walls

A disc sconce sits almost flat to the wall, which is the reason to choose this shape over a projecting one. In a hallway, a stairwell, or beside a bed, a fitting that stands proud of the wall is something you catch a shoulder or an elbow on. A disc removes that problem without giving up the light.

The striped glass is doing the work a plain diffuser would not. Ribs across the face break the output into bands rather than a single flat glow, so the fitting has texture when lit and pattern when it is not. Vintage styling on a round disc is a combination that suits both period hallways and plain modern ones. Mount it on a plain wall rather than a patterned one, since the banded light is the whole effect here and wallpaper competes with it directly and wins.

It suits hallways, stairwells, landings, bedsides, and beside mirrors. Mount it at a height where the glow falls where you need it rather than centring it on the wall for symmetry alone. Electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in line with local wiring regulations, with the supply isolated first. Buy it now.
