Very interesting.

Hello Northstar 1 thing to remember when choosing your lights .If you want the light down choose a down facing lampholder, dont drop them to low as the GLARE from the globes in your eyes every time they are on is annoying as, every lit pendant you showed had an incandescent globe so if your going to use Fluro globes they will look worse.LED globes with a cleeear glass would be best. Avoid carbon filament even though they look great its a low light output. Depending on your budget take a look at Mondoluce on line they have some amazing glass pendants from Italy and in multiple sizes.

The idea of wall lights is to shine light equally on both sides of face while doing makeup.

Sconces aren’t normally large. What size are you thinking? You said no to shades. Not sure what you mean. You want a globe? Some concepts to get a better feel for your likes
