Lumenorth Havana Mid-Century Wall Sconce

Warmth, form, and a touch of 1950s iconography. Havana takes its cue from the cigar-shaped lamps that defined mid-century American and Italian design: a soft shade wrapped in a fine silk diffuser, casting warm light both upward and downward from the wall. Intimate without being dim, and present without ever demanding attention from the room around it.

There are four shade shapes. The cigar is the long tapered original and the most obviously mid-century of the set, and it is the one to choose if the reference is the point. The oval is rounder and softer, which suits a bedroom better than a living room. The lantern is more upright and structured, and reads as the most formal. The ball is the most contemporary of the four and the easiest to place in a room that is otherwise modern, since it carries the least period baggage with it.

Silk diffuses the bulb into a genuinely warm glow rather than a filtered white one, and the pull chain puts the switch within reach of a pillow. The arm is fully adjustable and the fitting is dimmable, so the same lamp covers both a page late at night and a whole evening of low light.
