Esfera Large Sconce by Kelly Wearstler for Visual Comfort

The Esfera Large Sconce by Kelly Wearstler is a modern LED wall sconce. Three crystal cylinders sit in a row on a slim black backplate, a long, quiet wall light that you can mount vertically or horizontally. It comes in Nightshade Black.

The Design Story

Kelly Wearstler's Esfera series explores elemental materials and balanced, symmetrical forms. Here, clear cylindrical crystal prisms act as the light sources, and a simple, linear metal plate ties them together and holds them to the wall. The contrast of glassy shapes and plain black metal gives the design its modern, transitional look.

Why You'll Love It

Esfera Large is 21 inches long and only 3.2 inches deep, with three crystal cylinders spaced along a black plate. It works as a bath or vanity light, a bedside pair, a stair or hall light, or a row of three along a long wall. The integrated LED gives 401 lumens at 2700K and 90 CRI on 16.9 watts, and it dims on ELV, TRIAC and 0-10V dimmers.

Rated for Damp Locations

Esfera Large Sconce is ETL listed, and Visual Comfort rates it for indoor damp locations and outdoor spaces under cover, such as a covered porch. The light source is an integrated LED with a 5-year warranty, so there are no bulbs to replace.

Product Details

Where It Shines

Above a bath mirror, beside a bed, along a hallway or stair, over a console, or turned on end beside a doorway.

Who This Is Not For

Esfera Large gives 401 lumens from three small cylinders, so it is a soft, decorative light and not the main light for a bath or a dining room. It is hardwired, and Visual Comfort lists it for indoor use and covered outdoor spaces only.

Questions We Hear Most

How big is the Esfera Large Sconce?

The black backplate is 21 inches long and 5.6 inches tall, the crystal cylinders are 4.5 inches tall, and the fixture sticks out 3.2 inches from the wall. It weighs 11.5 pounds.

Can I mount it vertically or horizontally?

Yes. Visual Comfort lists it to mount either way, so you can run it along a wall like a vanity bar or stand it on end beside a mirror or a doorway.

What light source does it use?

It has an integrated LED that gives 401 delivered lumens at 2700K and 90 CRI on 16.9 watts. Visual Comfort rates the LED to L70 over 50,000 hours, so there are no bulbs to change.

How do I dim it?

It dims with most LED compatible ELV, TRIAC and 0-10V dimmers, and it runs on universal 120V to 277V.

Can I use it in a bath or outdoors?

Visual Comfort rates it for indoor damp locations and outdoor spaces under cover, so a bath or a covered porch is fine. It is not for fully exposed outdoor use.

What finish does it come in?

We offer Esfera Large Sconce in Nightshade Black, a deep black plate that makes the crystal cylinders stand out.

Why We Love It

Esfera Large lines up three glowing crystal cylinders on a black bar and lets the glass do the talking.
