Sconce pendel
The designed by Pierre Forssel for Skultuna is my personal favorite candle wall sconce in gold. I can imagine a set of them hanging in a contemporary living room flooded with natural light. This candle sconce looks so balanced and the pendulum contributes to the design language (hence the name).
Pierre Forssel designed for Skultuna between 1955-86 and has become an icon. The vintage Sconce pendel pieces are much sought after in second-hand platforms (keep an eye out for his designs at if you prefer a vintage piece over a new one). I think this is the best taper candle wall sconce as the classic design of the pendulum elongates the taper candle.
Flambeau
The Flambeau candle holder designed by is inspired by French modernist lighting fixtures the design resembles a flickering flame. It’s a brass candle sconce with a sculptural design and a playful presence where the backplate magnifies and reflects candlelight to create a cozy ambiance in the dining room, living room, or any modern interior design. I think the effect of the enlarged reflection of the candle on the brass plate is striking.
Copenhagen-based design studio Kroyer-Saetter-Lassen also designed the famous Torso lamp for Menu, a modern lamp with a timeless look that became a staple favorite in my home and is now available as a USB-powered version as well.
Votive
has an organic shape dish behind the candle, which reflects the candle in a blurred way and casts a glowing light into the room. Each candleholder is made from cast brass with a brushed finish to give it a soft and delicate look and it’s the only candle sconce on the list that has been fitted for a tea light, rather than a taper candle, which makes it quite unique.
Glim
Glim is a wall-hung candle mirror candle sconce designed by . The mirror reflects the candlelight and the design is inspired by old lanterns. The Glim candle sconce comes in different shapes and sizes and can be grouped together for an impressive effect in a modern living room or contemporary style home.
Wall of flame
is a black candle wall sconce with a single arm made of metal tubes, bent into position. The candle holder tricks the eye making it come out of the wall.
Frederik Roije is known for his creative and innovative approach to design, and along with the Storylines bookshelf, the Wall of flame candle sconce is one of his most famous design pieces.
Ornament
Straight lines characterize the . The design has a simple yet strong geometric character, which provides warmth and curiosity wherever placed. This candle sconce, available in a round or rectangular shape is crafted from delicate steel and gently reflects the light from the candle.
Lampett
is a rustic candle wall sconce crafted by hand out of black metal. The clean lines and minimal design fit perfectly in a home designed with a neutral color palette and the design shines in its simplicity.
