Japanese Wood Wall Sconce — Rotatable LED Reading Light
The bedside reading light that disappears when you don't need it. The Japanese Wood Wall Sconce is a quietly disciplined wall light — a slim rectangular wood and acrylic head on a low-profile arm that rotates to point exactly where you need it, then folds flush to the wall. Designed for headboard reading without taking up nightstand space, equally at home on either side of a hallway mirror or above a study desk.

Curator's note
This is a "buy two and forget about them" light. The wood softens it. The rotating head means it actually does its job. We picked it because most bedside reading lights either glare or stop working — this one reads like a piece of furniture and lights like a tool.
Styling & installation
Mount 90–110 cm from the floor for a seated headboard reader, or 150 cm above the floor as a hallway accent. The Small size suits compact bedrooms and corridors; Medium is the safe default; Large works best with a tall king/queen headboard or as a study task light. A Part-P qualified electrician will install in 30 minutes; or pair with a UK-spec wall switch you've already got. Pairs with our Pleated Brass Wall Lamp for a layered Japandi bedroom.
