Hinkley Virginian Sconce

This fixture is dry-rated, meaning it is intended for indoor spaces without moisture. It is best suited for living rooms, hallways, or dining areas rather than bathrooms or laundry rooms.

Yes, this is a hardwired fixture. We recommend having a licensed electrician handle the installation to ensure it is safely mounted and properly connected to your home's electrical system.

The Virginian requires two E12 candelabra-base bulbs. You can use up to 60W per bulb, though LED equivalents are a great option if you prefer lower energy consumption and less heat.

The white candle sleeves are designed to be part of the fixture's traditional aesthetic. While they can typically be removed, the socket structure underneath is intended to be covered by these sleeves for a finished look.

Yes, this sconce is compatible with optional black parchment shades. These can be added to soften the light output and provide a more tailored, formal appearance.

The fixture is crafted from solid brass, which is a durable, high-quality material. Like all polished brass, it may develop a natural patina over time if not occasionally polished, but it will not rust.
