Fashion meets function in this gray wood and black iron outdoor sconce. In addition to adding that rustic piece of outdoorsy flair that’s perfect for a contemporary home, this light is also pretty smart. It turns on at 25-percent brightness and goes to 100-percent when motion is detected. Two minutes after motion is no longer detected, the light will revert to low-level brightness. Pretty clever?
