French & Hamptons Style
The Portsea wall light is a traditional brass wall sconce built around a single curved arm and a cream candle sleeve, finished in a warm antique brass that carries genuine heritage character. Standing 21cm high and just 10cm wide, it sits neatly against a wall without crowding a hallway, bedroom or entrance, and its rectangular backplate gives it a settled, architectural presence rather than a purely decorative one. It’s a fitting that suits French provincial and Hamptons interiors alike, wherever a soft pool of candlelight is wanted rather than a flood of overhead brightness.
- Solid brass construction with a distressed antique finish gives real weight and substance — at 1.4kg it sits securely on its wall plate without feeling flimsy.
- The curved arm and rectangular backplate design of this candle wall light gives it a classic, heritage silhouette that suits both period homes and new builds styled in a traditional manner.
- Runs on standard Australian 240V household wiring, so installation is straightforward for any qualified electrician.
- Takes a single E14 candle-shaped globe, LED only recommended, up to 40W — an easy, energy-conscious choice for everyday use.
- IP20 rated, so it’s suited to dry indoor areas such as hallways, bedrooms and living spaces rather than bathrooms or exteriors.
- Designed to take a clip-fitting fabric shade with a 5 inch base diameter, sold separately, so you can match the shade to your own room palette.
A Candle Wall Sconce for Heritage-Style Rooms
Mount the Portsea in pairs either side of a hallway mirror, along a staircase, or flanking a bed head for a soft, flattering wash of light. The exposed cream candle sleeve reads as an authentic period detail, while the antique brass tone pairs naturally with darker timbers, aged mirrors and other brass hardware already in the home. It’s a fitting that reads as considered rather than decorative — a small but deliberate finishing touch.
