Maxim Lighting Baja Wall Sconce

Baja is a wall sconce from Maxim Lighting. It measures 6 in (15.2 cm) wide by 11.75 in (29.8 cm) high, extending 7.5 in (19.1 cm) from the wall. It is offered in Dark Bronze or Natural Aged Brass.

The Design Story

Baja wraps its shades in woven synthetic rattan, bringing a natural, coastal texture to the collection. Two palettes keep it versatile: natural rattan against a dark bronze frame, or weathered white weave with natural aged brass. Light filters through the weave in small, warm patterns, giving incandescent illumination a hand-made quality. The slim steel framework keeps focus on the shade itself. Hung near a mirror, over a vanity or in a casual dining nook, it adds an easy, organic layer.

Why You’ll Love It

It takes E26 Medium bulbs up to 60W per socket, which makes it easy to choose your own color temperature and brightness. It can be mounted facing up or down, to suit the room. Materials: steel, rattan.
