The Sail 17 is a Besa wall sconce in Black, Bronze or Silver, and it suits entries, garages, stair walls and tall porch walls where a long glass should add height.
The Design Story
A tall glass in Opal, Bubble or Smoke Bubble held in a decorative faceplate. Two lamps light the length of it. Our photos show each glass with a Silver faceplate; Black and Bronze share them. Besa’s signature is the glass. American designers work with European craftsmen, every shade is made by hand, and each one is inspected in Ohio before it leaves the factory, so the small variations you see are the mark of a handmade piece, not a flaw.
Why You’ll Love It
It gives a wall one honest accent. The glass does the decorating, the metalwork stays quiet, and the light is soft and even.
Made for Real Life
Wet rated, so rain and spray are fine. Size: 6.25" wide x 17.5" high x 4" deep. The full details are in the table below.
