Top 10 Wall Sconces

As I've mentioned before in my "Tip of the Week" (which changes every week, FYI) wall sconces are a great way to both illuminate and decorate a dark, narrow hallway. The question of how to decorate a hallway is often times a stumbling block. Too much busyness on the wall can make a long, narrow corridor seem smaller. The addition of a stylish wall sconce however provides both light and wall decor! Multi-functional fixtures are what its all about!

Here is my personal top 10 favorite modern and contemporary wall sconces. Do you have a favorite? Lights out until next time!

- Almost anything FontanaArte (http://www.fontanatest.com/homepage.php), particularly the "Flute" and the "Slot."

Thanks for the comment, Stroller. I love that Caboche sconce! Definitely would have made my top 10 for high end modern sconces. I wanted to include something for everyone though. As for FontanaArte...wow. Nice stuff there! Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the comment about James Vance's chandelier! I think it actually is made of paper, but I wasn't sure so I didn't mention it. Did you visit the Rochambeau blog? James Vance has made some other stuff that I think is paper, it's absolutely incredible!

I haven't checked out the Rochambeau blog yet. I bookmarked it though. I will definitely be checking it later. Thanks for the tip :-)
