{"product_id":"visual-comfort-claret-tail-sconce-with-linen-shade","title":"Visual Comfort Claret Tail Sconce","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the most common mistakes with decorative wall sconces is choosing a fixture that looks beautiful in isolation but loses its impact in context â€” wrong scale, wrong finish, wrong placement. A piece as statement-led as this demands a considered approach from the outset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor decorative sconces of this character, the key decisions are finish coordination, wall placement height, and spacing between units. Because the crystal tail extends significantly below the main light housing, the fixture's effective visual length is considerably greater than the shade alone â€” something worth accounting for early in your layout. IP20 means this is rated for dry interior spaces only, so it's suited to bedrooms, dining rooms, and dressing rooms where moisture is not a factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Visual Comfort Claret Tail Sconce, designed by AERIN Lauder, is a wall-mounted decorative sconce built around an elaborate descending crystal tail. Faceted crystals are crafted into dense floral and botanical motifs on a sculpted metal frame, tapering into a vertical drop of almond-shaped and teardrop crystal elements. The drum shade at the top diffuses the light source, casting illumination downward through the crystal work to produce a shimmering, refractive ambience that reads as period and heirloom in character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design pairs a clean, geometric drum shade in white fabric with intensely ornate crystal work â€” a contrast that makes it work in both classically styled and more transitional interiors. The metal frame is available in two finishes: Burnished Silver Leaf and Gild, each lending a distinctly different warmth and tone to the overall composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Claret Tail Sconce is rated IP20, making it appropriate for dry interior zones. It is a hardwired wall installation. Lamp type and driver requirements should be confirmed at the point of specification â€” Visual Comfort fixtures of this type typically accept a standard candelabra or E12\/E14 source within the shade. Where multiple sconces are planned for a hallway or dining room, a minimum spacing of 2.4â€“3 metres between units is recommended for balanced light distribution. The fixture carries a 1-year manufacturer's warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Lightsource Studio, we work through the specification detail so you don't have to â€” finish selection, placement, spacing, and sourcing all considered together. The Claret is a piece that rewards careful positioning, and we're here to make sure it lands exactly as intended, on time and on brief.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Visual Comfort","offers":[{"title":"Burnished Silver Leaf","offer_id":56286683627846,"sku":"16057863","price":845.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gild","offer_id":56286683791686,"sku":"16057864","price":845.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0872\/8982\/3558\/files\/arn2226bsll_2.jpg?v=1775134552","url":"https:\/\/www.lightsourcestudio.es\/en\/products\/visual-comfort-claret-tail-sconce-with-linen-shade","provider":"Lightsource Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
