Visual Comfort Basden Tail Sconce
The Visual Comfort Basden Tail Sconce, designed by Chapman & Myers, is a decorative wall light that pairs an elongated vertical 'tail' with a tapered white fabric shade. The piece combines a natural rattan-wrapped rod and antique-burnished brass metalwork to deliver soft, diffused ambient illumination for interior spaces.
The design emphasises verticality: a long central rod extends above and below the horizontal mounting arm to create presence on a wall. A stepped rectangular backplate and a short cylindrical arm connect the assembly, while the fabric shade sits at the top of the rod to softly filter the lamp.
Construction blends natural and metal materials — a substantial portion of the rod is wrapped in textured, natural rattan with visible horizontal banding, set against antique-burnished brass metal components and a crisp white fabric shade. Rattan is a natural material, so slight variations in tone and texture are to be expected.
Light is delivered via a single lamp socket located beneath the shade; the shade provides even, glare-controlled ambient light rather than a concentrated task beam. The Basden sconce’s mix of woven rattan and burnished metal creates a transitional look that sits comfortably between coastal and classic interiors.
This is a hardwired interior fitting: the solid rectangular backplate is intended to cover a standard electrical junction box. The product carries an IP20 rating and is therefore for dry, internal zones only. Lamps are not supplied; consult our specification notes if you require a particular lamp type or dimming behaviour. Manufacturer warranty: 1 year.
At Lighting Design Online we treat fittings as tools to shape ambience. The Basden Tail Sconce is presented with clear material and installation cues so you can specify with confidence; our designers can advise on lamp choice, dimming compatibility and siting to ensure a considered, long-lasting outcome for your project.
