The Aura Large 56 cm LED Wall Sconce is the taller Aura, carrying the five-column design to 56 cm. Its metal body, 12 cm wide and 5 cm deep, holds five bubbled acrylic cylinders; light passes through them and leaves a long, shimmering pattern on the wall. It sits in proportion in living rooms and stairwells with ceilings of 270 cm or more.
Highlights
- 56 cm vertical line: the tall body emphasises the wall's height in a high-ceilinged room.
- Bubbled pattern: bubbles refract the light; switched off, it still reads as a decorative object.
- 30 LEDs when hardwired: integrated LED, no bulb or adaptor.
- Battery option: a 9V battery model for long walls without wiring.
Where to use it
- Living room wall: a pair either side of a sofa frames a wide wall.
- Console or sideboard: symmetry either side of a mirror or artwork.
- Stairwell: each sconce sits at the same height above its step.
- Double-height room: a point of light at eye level on a tall wall.
- Office reception: a decorative focal point on the welcome wall.

Body colour and placement
A 56 cm body takes up a lot of wall, so choose the colour by the room's dominant material.
- Black and warm light: a crisp silhouette on a white or cream wall, warm in the evening.
- Anthracite and white light: modern with concrete-effect panels and a grey sofa.
- Silver and white light: a fresh room with marble effect and a glass table.
Keep at least 40 cm between the top and the ceiling; for centre height and spacing, see our sconce height and placement guide.
How to install
- Mark the position: the centre usually sits 150–170 cm from the floor; space a pair equally from the object between them.
- Hardwired model, switch off the breaker: have a qualified electrician make the connection.
- Check the wall: scan for cables and pipes before drilling.
- Battery model, insert the battery: fit the 9V battery supplied.
- Fix it: secure with 2 screws and check it is plumb; on a tall body even a slight tilt shows.
Frequently asked questions
What ceiling height suits the Aura Large 56 cm?
Aura Large sits in proportion in rooms with ceilings of 270 cm or more, in double-height rooms and stairwells. Leave at least 40 cm above it; under a lower ceiling the 39 cm Medium is more balanced.
Should the Aura Large 56 cm be used alone or as a pair?
Either works. On a wide, empty wall or a stair landing, one Aura Large creates a focal point. With a sofa, console or mirror, choose two in the same colour and place them equally either side.
How many LEDs does the hardwired Aura Large 56 cm have?
The hardwired model has 30 LEDs (10 × 3). It runs on 110–220 V mains power, needs no bulb or adaptor and connects to the wall wiring; have a qualified electrician make the connection.
How do I clean the Aura Large 56 cm?
Switch it off and wipe the acrylic cylinders and metal body with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners and hard sponges. A soft brush lifts dust from between the cylinders.
