Industrial Resin Hand Wall Lamp – Left or Right Hand Sconce

A wall sconce cast as a human hand holding the light, made in resin and available as a Left Hand or a Right Hand. The handedness is not decorative trivia: a hand reaching out of a wall has a direction, and the model has to be chosen to suit which side of a doorway, mirror or bed it will end up on.

Resin is the material that makes a figurative form like this practical. It is cast from a mold, so fine anatomical detail — knuckles, tendons, the line of the fingers — comes out crisp and repeats accurately from one piece to the next. It is also light, which matters for a form that projects out from a wall: a cast metal hand of the same size would put considerably more leverage on the fixing behind it.

It suits a hallway, a bar area, or a bedroom wall where a figurative fixture is wanted instead of a bracket. Buying one of each model gives a mirrored pair for either side of a door or a bed.
