The Visual Comfort Rousseau Medium Vanity Sconce from the Rousseau range, designed by Kelly Wearstler, is a wall-mounted vanity sconce that pairs a minimalist silhouette with refined detailing. It is specified for interior bathroom use and is shown as a vertical, slim-profile lighting element intended to provide even, diffused illumination.

Its design combines a pill-shaped oval backplate with a long, slender central column and two cylindrical diffusers. The narrow, vertical orientation and dual-ended light output make the sconce well suited to mounting in pairs either side of a mirror or as a slim architectural accent; finishes are available in Polished Nickel, Bronze and Antique-Burnished Brass.

Construction details visible in product imagery show a metal body with a muted metallic finish and translucent cylindrical diffusers. The diffusers are described as a white, matte translucent material consistent with etched crystal or frosted glass, while the elongated oval backplate and short horizontal stem provide a clean, integrated aesthetic.

The fitting delivers diffused light from both the top and bottom of the central column to create a continuous, vertical column of illumination. That dual-direction output reduces harsh shadows and supports balanced vanity lighting without exposing a traditional bulb form.

The integrated backplate is designed to cover a standard electrical junction box for a neat, flush mount. The product data does not specify lamp inclusion, driver or dimming compatibility; check the technical documents or contact us for confirmation. Manufacturer warranty is listed as 1 year.
