Q. How much can I expect to pay for a sconce light?
A. Economical sconces are in the twenty to fifty dollar range. A unique
sconce will cost one hundred to one hundred fifty dollars. Chandelier
and custom made sconces range from five hundred to one thousand dollars
and up.
Q. Why are sconce lights so romantic?
A. Sconce lights are normally not as bright. Dim lighting is more romantic.
Additionally, sconce lighting takes color from the walls and projects
the color into the room to create moods. Warmer colors (yellow, orange,
and red) create the most romantic atmosphere.
Q. How long have sconce lights existed?
A. Sconces have been around since the 16th century (1500s), and in England
they were most often made from metal until the late 1600s when gilt wood
began being used widely.
Q. What are the most common areas for a wall sconce?
A. Near the doorway of your home (outside), in a stairwell with high
ceilings, and in hallways. We also recommend the bedroom even though it
is not traditionally the most popular location.
