When you’re on the search for romantic room lighting, beyond mere table candles, consider candle wall sconces. Permanently affixed to the wall, sconces are readily available for that intimate, warm lighting at any occasion. They offer a subtle Victorian air, but one that would suit many styles of home décor. Turning out the overhead lights to ignite some delicate candles alters the atmosphere of even the most sterile mod look.  A single candle wall sconce may be used to light a specific area. Perhaps above a mantle, in the bathroom, or in a hallway.

Wrought iron candle wall sconces are the most antique style. Typical wrought iron forms come in vine like carvings, with dark swoops and curves. Even the modern flat wrought iron plates for wide pillar candles have a more serious tone to them. Wrought iron does require décor to support it. An old house, or Victorian style home, or equally sophisticated furniture at the minimum. These sconces are pieces of art in themselves. They might take the place of other wall art in some rooms, or be scattered amongst hanging art pieces. Other antique candle wall sconces are generally designed in metal, and have a distinctly elaborate quality. They all follow the same interior design rules as wrought iron.

Brass candle wall sconces have more of a shine, creating a younger tone. Still quite sophisticated however. Brass should look appropriate in your color scheme; with its own beautiful sheen, you would not want to put brass out of place in a room of stark and sterile colors.

For the room of modern design, consider glass candle wall sconces. Both frosted and clear glass candle holder wall sconces combine the warmth of candlelight with the bright newness of glass. In rooms with high color contrast, chrome, or silver, glass will be perfectly at home. The candlelight also reflects beautifully in glass. The effect may even be reminiscent of chandelier lighting, only not as dramatic. Since glass has to be cut, glass sconces generally have more geometric lines. In comparison to the curves of metal vinework, glass is invariably more sterile. It also takes a little more cleaning maintenance to look its best.

Mirrored candle wall sconces multiply the effect of simple glass. Mirrored designs will suit antique, traditional, and modern decors. The mirror effect is charming under any circumstances. It also provides more illumination, if you’re worried about not being able to see sufficiently. Mirrors may often be in combination with iron or chrome, as well, to further diversify the application of mirrors’ beauty.

As will all lighting, sconces are beyond pure function. Decorative candle wall sconces provide light beautifully…when you only need minimal lighting. And when romance is the mood. For enchanting, intimate lighting, candle sconces are the top choice.
