A wall sconce brings the light source down to eye level, washing the wall behind it and creating a layer of ambient light that works independently of ceiling fixtures. The Node is a surface-mounted hardwired sconce with an E27 socket, available in three finishes: brass, matte black, and matte white.
In a bedroom, a pair of sconces mounted on either side of the bed replaces bedside lamps and keeps the nightstand clear: a setup common in hotel rooms and increasingly in residential master bedrooms. In a hallway, sconces create a rhythm of eye-level light that guides movement through the space. In a living room or study, a single sconce beside a chair or sofa creates a considered reading position without the clutter of a floor lamp.
In a bathroom, a sconce placed beside the mirror in the dry zone provides even face-level light that eliminates the shadows cast by overhead fittings: a practical improvement for grooming and tasks that benefit from accurate, forward-facing light. The Node's E27 socket is also compatible with low-voltage globes when paired with a suitable external driver or transformer, making it suitable for bathroom circuits where a low-voltage specification is required.
The Brass and Porcelain Wall Sconce Set ($85) includes a 7.2W G95 Porcelain globe in warm white (2700K) or soft white (3000K): a ready-to-install option for buyers who prefer the diffused output of a porcelain shade over an open-filament globe.
All products are SAA-certified, IP20-rated for indoor dry areas, and surface-mounted for hardwired installation by a licensed electrician. Mounting hardware is included.

Buying Guide
Which finish suits my space?
Brass adds warmth and a soft metallic presence: it reads well against neutral and warm-toned walls, pairs naturally with timber joinery and natural stone, and suits bedrooms, hotel rooms, and wine bars where a golden glow sets the mood. Matte black makes a deliberate mark: its flat, non-reflective finish creates a crisp silhouette that works in contemporary, industrial, and monochrome interiors, and looks its best with a warm amber filament globe to soften the contrast. Matte white takes the quietest approach, receding against a pale wall so the fitting becomes almost sculptural, suited to Scandi-influenced, minimalist, and all-white interiors where restraint is the point.
Which globe suits a wall sconce?
The Node accepts any E27 globe, giving full control over the warmth, shape, and quality of the light. For brass and matte black finishes, a clear vintage filament globe in extra-warm 2200K is a natural pairing: the visible filament suits the exposed-socket aesthetic and adds mood. A G95 Porcelain globe in soft white 3000K gives a cleaner, more diffuse result with no glare, which is why it is included in the Brass and Porcelain Set. For matte white, a porcelain or opal globe keeps the fitting soft and seamless against a pale wall. Browse the Dulora Globe collection for compatible E27 options.
Where can I install a wall sconce?
The Node is IP20 rated and designed for indoor dry areas. It suits bedrooms, mounted as a pair either side of the bed for a hotel-style reading setup that keeps the nightstand clear. It works along hallways, creating a rhythm of light at eye level. In a bathroom, it can be placed beside the mirror in the dry zone for even face-level light. With a compatible low-voltage globe and a suitable external driver or transformer installed by a licensed electrician, The Node can also be specified for bathroom circuits where a low-voltage fitting is required. A single sconce beside an armchair makes a considered reading corner; in hospitality and retail, The Node suits hotel suites, wine bars, salons, and boutique interiors.
Can wall sconces be dimmed?
Yes, provided the globe is fitted with a dimmable switch and a compatible dimmer switch is installed. The Node itself is a passive hardwired fitting; dimming is controlled by the globe and the wall dimmer. The G95 Porcelain globe included in the Brass and Porcelain Set is fully dimmable with an LED-compatible dimmer. All Dulora-sold dimmers are trailing-edge. If you are selecting your own globe, confirm it is dimmable before purchasing, and check the product page for guidance on dimmer compatibility before installation.
