Swing Arm & Reading Sconces
Adjustable swing arm and reading wall lights that free up nightstand space and put light exactly where you need it.
How to place a reading sconce
Beside a bed, mount the sconce so the light sits a little above your shoulder when sitting up to read, and about 6 to 12 inches outside the edge of the headboard.
Swing arms also work beside sofas and reading chairs, and over desks.
