The double sconce is having a moment, and most of them get it wrong. Two shades pointing the same direction, mounted symmetrically on either side of a mirror — it reads hotel corridor. The Nelly does something smarter: one ribbed glass shade points up, one curves down, creating an asymmetrical silhouette that looks intentional rather than prescribed. Against tile — especially anything geometric or patterned — it holds its own.
The brass hardware is the right kind of warm: not yellow, not pink, just aged gold with enough weight to anchor the ribbed white glass without competing with it. We have been putting it against dark zellige and against sage green tile and it works in both contexts, which is rarer than it sounds for a bathroom fixture.
It is hardwired and damp-rated, which means it is a real bathroom fixture rather than a sconce borrowed from a hallway. Two candelabra bulbs, not included — worth choosing something warm and slightly filament-adjacent to let the ribbed glass do its best work.
