The Moto 8 is a Besa wall sconce in Black, Bronze or Silver, and it suits modern entries, garages, patios and stair walls where a clean, boxy sconce should match the architecture.
The Design Story
A heavy-gauge aluminum box with a perforated square or grid faceplate over a white acrylic diffuser, in Black, Bronze or Silver. The Moto 8 is one of three sizes. Our photos show the 8-inch Moto; the faceplate pattern on Square Black and Bronze follows the grid photo of the same finish. Besa is best known for hand-blown glass, but its Metalworks line is all about the metal: US-fabricated, powder-coated sheet, assembled in the USA.
Why You’ll Love It
It gives a wall one honest accent. The faceplate does the decorating, the powder-coated body stays quiet, and the light is soft and even.
Made for Real Life
Wet rated, so rain and spray are fine. Size: 8.25" wide x 10.25" high x 2.5" deep. The full details are in the table below. Pairs well with Moto 11 wall sconce, Moto 13 wall sconce.
