Nova Scalloped Wall Sconce

Scalloped Wall Sconce is a wall sconce that clears the table and the floor by putting the light on the wall.

The light is 1500 lumens of 3000K warm light. It dims from a dimmer on the inline/ cord.

The Design Story

The house behind this lamp is one of the oldest names in American lighting. Nova began in Brooklyn in 1923, moved its design voice west to California, and still builds around woodworking and craft.

Why You’ll Love It

It reads as furniture, not hardware. Built from steel, linen, and metal, it has the weight a thin fixture lacks. It measures 14.6 in tall, 7.1 in wide, and 10 in deep, so the scale is easy to plan around. The light is warm and even: 1500 lumens of 3000K warm light, CRI 95+, so wood, fabric and skin tones look right. The single finish is chosen to sit with most palettes.

Made for Real Life

Day to day it is easy. Follow the included hardware; have a licensed electrician wire it if you are not comfortable doing so. Dust it with a dry cloth, keep harsh cleaners away, and use a dimmable, flicker-free LED if you dim it, as Nova recommends.

LED vs. Incandescent

A bulb’s brightness is its lumen count, and its wattage is only the electricity it uses. Here that means 1500 lumens from a 14W LED, the same punch as an old 100W incandescent, without the heat. Incandescents read a touch warmer and softer, but they run hot and burn out faster. Switching later is easy: keep the same base, and choose a dimmable, flicker-free LED rated 3000K.

Putting It Together

Expect to do a little final assembly when it arrives. The instructions are packed in the box; ask us if you want a look at them first.

Details and Dimensions

Where It Shines

It looks best beside a bed, along a hallway, or on either side of a mirror or sofa. It is not the right pick for anyone who wants a lamp to carry around, since a wall light stays where it is mounted.

Yes, a 1-year limited warranty. Nova covers defects in material or workmanship under normal use for 1 year when a lamp is bought through a retailer like us (its own website sells with 3 years). Nova decides whether to repair, replace or refund. Damage from pets, modification, use outside the U.S. and incandescent bulbs are excluded. Write to us first if anything arrives wrong.

Why We Love It

Our take: Nova makes lighting that behaves like a design piece. It has a clear silhouette, it dims, and it will not look dated in a few years.
