Basix is a wall sconce from Maxim Lighting. It measures 13.5 in (34.3 cm) wide by 8 in (20.3 cm) high, extending 9 in (22.9 cm) from the wall. Frosted glass is paired with a Polished Chrome finish.
The Design Story
Basix leans on sweeping arms and clean lines, an uncomplicated vocabulary that fits contemporary and transitional interiors. Frosted glass shades soften the incandescent lamps into a diffused, even glow, while polished chrome or satin nickel adds a clean metallic edge. The family covers entry foyer pendants, bowl pendants, minis and multi-tier chandeliers, giving a designer a coherent range for adjacent rooms. Its curves are gentle, its proportions measured, and its overall tone is calm and adaptable.
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, glass.

Where It Shines
Flanking a bed or a mirror, lining a hallway or stair, beside a fireplace or framing a doorway. A wall sconce adds a layer of light at eye level, which makes a room feel warmer than ceiling light alone, and it frees up nightstand and floor space.
