Capslpad wall sconces, set of 2

A bedside or vanity wall can be awkward to light when a fixed shade points away from the spot you need. This pair of Capslpad sconces combines green glass shades with swing arms that adjust through 180 degrees, so you can direct the light rather than move furniture around it. Each fixture is hardwired and has a rotary switch, the bulbs are not included. The vintage look is the draw, but the wiring requirement and bulb limit matter just as much when deciding whether they suit your room.

Technical details

The set includes two indoor wall sconces with green glass shades and brass bases. Each fixture measures 8.8 inches high by 5 inches wide overall, the shade is 4.3 inches high by 5.1 inches wide, and the arm is 5.3 inches long. The arm and shade can be adjusted through 180 degrees, giving you some flexibility to aim the light at a mirror, doorway or reading spot.

Each sconce has a rotary switch and requires an E26 bulb rated at no more than 40W. Bulbs are not supplied. Installation hardware is included, but these are hardwired fixtures, not plug-in lamps. That makes them a different choice from a portable bedside light: the wall placement looks more integrated, while moving or repositioning them later is less straightforward.

Getting the most from it

The adjustable arm is useful where the light needs to serve a specific area. For example, beside a vanity, you could angle the shade towards the mirror for getting ready, then turn it away when you want less direct light. A pair can also give a bedroom or entryway a coordinated vintage accent. The green glass and polished brass-style base bring a more distinctive look than a plain, fixed wall light, so they’ll suit rooms where the fixture is meant to be visible.

The description lists bathrooms among possible locations, but gives no damp- or wet-location rating. Don’t assume these are suitable for a space exposed to moisture, confirm the requirements for your intended installation before choosing them. Their 40W maximum also sets a clear ceiling on bulb power, so they may not suit a task area where you need a brighter fixture.

Usage tips

Plan the position before mounting: check where the arm will swing and whether the shade can point towards the surface you want to illuminate. Since the fixtures are hardwired, the wall needs to be ready for that type of installation, they aren’t a quick swap for a lamp with a plug. The included hardware is described for attaching the metal base to the wall, followed by the shade and bulb. If you’re choosing bulbs separately, look for E26 and stay within the stated 40W maximum.

It’s a good fit if you want a pair of adjustable, vintage-style wall lights and already have a suitable hardwired location. It may not be the best choice if you need a plug-in fixture, want bulbs included, or need a stated bathroom moisture rating. Given its design, the green glass and brass finish are as much a visible décor choice as a way to add directed light.

Before you decide

Are bulbs included? No. Each fixture needs an E26 bulb, with a maximum power of 40W.

Can you change the direction of the light? The swing arm and shade adjust through 180 degrees, so you can point the shade towards the area you want to light.

Are these plug-in sconces? No. They require hardwiring, so check that the installation suits your wall and setup before buying.

Before buying

Choose these if the green glass, brass base and adjustable format fit your room, and you’re prepared for hardwired installation with separate E26 bulbs. Look elsewhere if portability, included bulbs or a confirmed moisture rating is essential. That distinction is more useful than the vintage styling alone: these are fixed wall fixtures for planned lighting, not flexible lamps you can move between rooms.
