Visual Comfort Duelle 28" Large Wall Sconce | Mick De Giulio | Up/Down LED | Black, Brass or Nickel

The Duelle Large Wall Sconce by Mick De Giulio for Visual Comfort Modern is the statement-scale version of the Duelle family — a 28-inch vertical LED bar with a pressed art glass diffuser that produces soft, bidirectional up/down light with a refinement that the smaller Duelle Medium achieves at a more modest scale. Where the Medium suits standard-height walls and conventional room dimensions, the Large is calibrated for spaces with genuine vertical ambition: tall living rooms, hotel lobby walls, double-height entries, and hospitality corridors where a single sconce needs to carry the weight of the wall it occupies.

The pressed glass diffuser distinguishes the Duelle Large from a simple LED extrusion — the glass adds a subtle material quality to the light output, a slight warmth and texture that plain acrylic diffusers don't produce. At 15W delivering 1,091 lumens at 2700K, 90 CRI, it is calibrated for ambient contribution rather than primary task illumination. The ADA-compliant 4-inch wall extension means it can be specified for corridors and accessible pathways without restriction. Available in Natural Brass, Nightshade Black, and Polished Nickel at both 120V and 277V. Vertical mount only. ETL listed. Five-year warranty. Free shipping at MetropolitanDecor.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the Duelle 18" Medium and 28" Large?
A: Scale and output. The 28-inch Large is proportioned for taller walls (10 feet and above) and delivers 1,091 lumens at 15W versus the Medium's lower output. It uses a pressed art glass diffuser rather than a plain acrylic element, adding a subtle material refinement. For standard 8–9 foot walls the Medium is typically more appropriate; for statement-scale applications and grand spaces, the Large.

Q: Can two Duelle Larges flank a fireplace or artwork effectively?
A: Yes — a pair of Duelle Larges flanking a fireplace surround or oversized artwork on a tall wall is a compelling composition. The 28-inch height creates a proportionally credible vertical counterpoint to architectural elements at that scale, and the bidirectional output highlights both the wall surface and the piece between them.

Q: Is the pressed glass diffuser visible when the fixture is off?
A: Yes — when unlit, the pressed glass reads as a textured, semi-translucent material element within the fixture body. It adds a tactile quality to the hardware that plain aluminum extrusions lack, which is part of what separates the Duelle Large from a purely utilitarian LED bar.
