The Tacito Wall Sconce from Huxe uses a clean, contemporary construction with retro notes to enliven its surroundings. Starting with a metal wall plate holding out a single upward-facing socket, the design’s shape hearkens back to that of a vintage candleholder. Lamping set under a long cylindrical shade of clear fluted glass offers an accent to the smooth surfaces and simple character of the metalwork, while gentling any direct glare into a warm glow around the fixture.
