The Clessidra Bowtie Wall Sconce brings a classic mid-century silhouette back to the wall. Two opal glass cones meet at a slim metal waist, casting light both upward and downward from a single fixture. Compact and sculptural, it works well as a standalone accent or mounted in pairs for a more symmetrical look.
An Hourglass Shape With Balanced, Two-Way Light
The Clessidra’s bowtie shape comes from two opal glass cones joined at a slim metal waist, mounted on a round backplate. Because light spreads both up and down from the same fixture, it washes the wall above and below rather than throwing a single hard-edged beam, giving the surrounding area a softer, more even glow. The compact size keeps its wall footprint small, so it fits tight spaces without feeling bulky.
Where and How to Use It
This sconce suits bedside walls, hallways, and vanity or mirror areas where a warm, two-way glow is useful. It’s available in Gold or Chrome, so you can match it to warmer or cooler hardware finishes elsewhere in the room. Many people mount two side by side, either flanking a bed, mirror, or entryway, for a more balanced, symmetrical look. Browse more options in our wall lights collection to compare styles.
