I recently installed a gold hardwired wall sconce (using the puck light hack), and love how it turned out! The entire process was much easier than I thought – so I ended up buying 2 more gold sconces that I will be installing soon – lol! But I know that choosing which sconce to buy (hardwired vs. battery/wireless) or (brushed brass vs. antique brass ) can get overwhelming, so I chose my favorite ones to help you out! Here is my roundup of the 16 Best Gold Light Sconces (Battery + Hardwired).

16 Best Gold Light Sconces (Battery + Hardwired)
Helpful Info:
What is the difference between battery/wireless and hardwired sconces?
Battery/Wireless:
- No electrician is needed.
- You can use battery operated puck lights w/remote or rechargeable lightbulbs w/timer.
- Sometimes also called wireless/cordless because there are no electrical wires or cords exposed.
Hardwired:
- Electrician is needed (or someone who can attach electrical wires safely from the sconce to the electrical source in the walls).
- Turns on/off with light switch.
- PUCK LIGHT HACK: can use battery operated puck lights w/remote or rechargeable lightbulbs w/timer.
Sconce Styles that I chose:
- Transitional, traditional, & modern.
- Some with fabric shades/clear glass/white globes.
- Battery-Operated and Hardwired w/puck light hack- both are renter friendly.
- Most come in different colors also (black, silver, black/gold, etc).
Budget-friendly:
- All sconces that I chose are sold as pairs (Otherwise marked as – sold individually).
- Prices range from ($45 – $160/pair)
All of my selections came from Amazon.
Ok, let’s get to the 16 Best Gold Light Sconces (Battery + Hardwired)!
16 Best Gold Light Sconces (Battery + Hardwired)
So what do my gold wall sconces look like?
- The double arm sconce is in our living room – (hardwired, but with the puck light hack).
- The single arm – larger one (I actually have 2 of these). They will be going in our master bedroom – hardwired, with the puck light hack also. Post is coming soon.
Mine will have asterisks * in the links section if you’re interested.

I also bought the first one listed in the hardwired section: (linked – #1 long arm square).
- I decided to go with the curved arm instead to fit my wall space dimensions better.
- They were beautiful though – so I still might end up trying them out. 😉
- A girl IS known to change their mind a couple of times – right? HaHa!

How to Navigate This Post
I chose gold sconces for our home – so the hardware is listed as gold/brass/brushed brass/antique brass, etc.
- There are several different colors for each sconce if you like the style (but gold is not your thing)!
- Or if you like to mix metals in your home – and want to add a different colored sconce to another room.
- But I figured you’re here for gold, so let’s go for gold – wow that was super cheesy!! 😉
