Print Sconce

The RBW Print Sconce gives you this interesting choice between glass and PET plastic globes in two different sizes, which sounds like a minor detail but actually makes a big difference in how it performs and where you can use it. The PET versions put out noticeably more light than glass - like 1449 lumens versus 1337 for the large size - probably because the plastic transmits light more efficiently. What's practical is having size options that really matter: the large version delivers over 1300 lumens from 19.7W, which is serious task lighting territory, while the small gives you 394-576 lumens from just 8W for more subtle accent work. The aluminum housing keeps everything looking clean and architectural rather than decorative or fussy. The performance numbers tell you exactly what you're getting into depending on your choices. Large PET globes hit 73.1 lm/W efficiency, which is genuinely impressive for this level of light output, while glass versions sacrifice some efficiency for that premium material feel. The small versions are where ADA compliance kicks in if that matters for your project - the large ones don't meet accessibility requirements. The damp location rating with IP65 protection means you can use these in bathrooms or covered outdoor areas where the choice between glass and plastic might come down to durability concerns. The 90 CRI keeps colors looking right regardless of which material you pick, and 50,000 hours means you'll probably move before replacing them. RBW has accumulated an impressive collection of patents across multiple countries for this design, suggesting they've solved some real engineering challenges rather than just offering cosmetic variations on existing wall sconces. Their approach of giving you meaningful choices - material, size, performance level - shows they understand that different spaces need different lighting solutions rather than one-size-fits-all fixtures. They seem focused on creating systems that let you dial in exactly what you need instead of forcing compromises between aesthetics and performance.
