- Classic wall sconces: These are traditional wall sconces with a simple design, usually with a single light source and a glass or fabric cover. They fit well into interiors with a classic or antique style.
- Modern wall sconces: Features a modern, minimalist design, often using contemporary materials such as metal, glass, or plastic. They are great for modern interiors and give the room a modern look.

- Decorative wall sconces: These sconces are an art in themselves. They can be made in abstract or geometric forms, and also include decorative elements such as crystal pendants or rhinestones.
- Wall fabric lampshade: These sconces have fabric or textile lampshades that give a soft and subdued lighting, which creates a cozy and warm atmosphere.

The differences between different wall sconces can be in their design, size, materials of manufacture, colors and the type of light bulbs used (incandescent, energy-saving, LEDs). The choice of wall sconce depends on the style and overall concept of the interior, as well as on the functionality you want to get from lighting in this area of the room. Consider the functionality, aesthetics and level of lighting you need and choose the wall sconce that best suits your needs.
