With a shape that hints at glamour and a surprising material that makes its strongest design statement, the Wallis wall sconce is worthy of its namesake Wallis Simpson on holiday. Wrapped in rope in a variety of thicknesses, these little sconces call to mind the yachting outings she took aboard ships like the Nahlin, which ferried the socialite and King Edward VIII across the Adriatic Sea. The Wallis, which measures 6 ¼" wide by 8 ½" deep by 12 ½" tall, is in the Bunny Williams Collection. Click on image for greater detail.
