A handcrafted mulberry silk shade catches light against a matte black backplate.

The Branford Natural Silk Wall Sconce weaves fine natural mulberry silk into a handcrafted shade, so light diffuses through its own texture, set against a matte black backplate with brass accents. It’s a wall-mounted, hardwired fixture available in two sizes, well suited to bedside reading, an entryway, a powder room, or a hallway.
