Linea 15-inch Dimmable Up/Down Wall Sconce by Visual Comfort & Co

The Linea 15 Dimmable Up/Down Sconce is Kelly Wearstler's smallest vertical wall light in the Linea sconce family — a 15-inch element that emits integrated LED light from both the top and bottom of the form, creating simultaneous up and downlight washes along the wall surface. This bi-directional output gives the fixture a quality of illumination that is more architectural than most sconces: the light defines the wall surface above and below the fixture rather than simply projecting outward from a single point. At 15 inches it is compact enough for narrow walls, corridor applications, bathroom mirrors, bedside positions, and any space where the design calls for a discreet but considered wall light with genuine material presence.

The alabaster diffuser visible through the vertical slit of the fixture glows warmly when illuminated, adding a material quality to the light that plain glass or acrylic alternatives cannot match. Integrated LED at 2700K and 90 CRI, ELV dimmable, damp-rated, ADA compliant. Available in Hand Rubbed Antique Brass and Burnished Bronze.

Coordinates with all other Linea pieces — sconces, desk lamp, floor lamp, and chandeliers — as part of Kelly Wearstler's complete Linea alabaster family for Visual Comfort.

Designed by Kelly Wearstler for Visual Comfort Modern.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is up/down lighting and why does it matter?
Up/down sconces emit light from both the top and bottom of the fixture, washing the wall both above and below simultaneously. This creates a more layered, architectural quality of illumination than a single-direction sconce, enhancing the wall surface and contributing more ambient light to the room.

How does the 15-inch compare to the 25 and 32-inch Linea sconces?
The 15 is the compact accent size — suited for narrow walls and accent positions. The 25 is the standard residential size for main bedroom and living room walls. The 32 is the statement scale for walls with more generous proportions.

Can this be used in a bathroom?
Yes — damp-rated for standard bathroom use. Not rated for in-shower wet zone installation.

Is the alabaster diffuser visible when the light is off?
Yes — the alabaster is visible through the vertical slit in the fixture as a material element regardless of whether the light is on. It contributes warm ivory tones to the wall even when unlit.
