What would it take to add maritime touches to your home’s décor? Consider the installation of nautical wall sconces. They imbue your home with images from seafaring times. Examples include imitations of dock lamps, ship lanterns, and wharf themes. They come in a variety of finishes that include chrome, bronze, black, and brass.

Shopping for Nautical Wall Sconces

Among the most popular nautical sconce models are those featuring caged bulbs. A good example is Elk’s Seaport sconce with an oil-rubbed bronze, antique brass, or satin nickel finish. For a slightly more coastal sconce appearance, there are the Regent Wall fixtures by Hudson Valley. These are ideal for bathrooms because they have a damp rating. If you prefer artistically conceived nautical wall lighting, check out the Atlantis model by Kalco.

Would you like to take the look and feel of nautical flair to the outside? Many of the same manufacturers also make nautical outdoor wall lights that have a wet rating. They give you a chance to introduce your favorite décor before guests even enter the home. By the way, other nautical lighting fixtures include pendants and even chandeliers.
