Wall sconce

Call me dumb, but this is the very first time that I know the name of the light in the photo. I already saw a lot of these lights in the Philippines and more of them here in Europe, but I never thought that it has a specific name. I thought it's just light. A while ago, I stumble into Lighting ShowPlace and there I knew that the kind of light shown in the photo is known as wall sconce. How about you, have you heard about it already? Am I the only person on earth who doesn't know about the term? What a shame! But atleast, I still got the chance to know it and thanks heavens for the internet and for the chance to surf for informations.:)
