Tapered Cone Shade · Swing-Arm Brass Body · Three Finishes · Two Shade Materials
A traditional wall sconce with a tapered cone shade — a circular brass backplate, a curved brass arm extending forward, and a pleated-collar socket holding a parasol-shaped shade beneath. The vocabulary draws from early-20th-century American workshop and library lighting.
Choose the shade material to suit your needs: ceramic for a soft light-transmissive glow, or aluminum for a more durable opaque shade that ships safely without breakage risk. Available in three metal finishes for the arm and backplate.

Features
Tapered Cone Shade
Parasol-shaped shade focuses light downward — bright reading-light intensity, glare-free.
Two Shade Materials
Ceramic for translucent glow, or aluminum for durable shipping and opaque cone form.
Three Metal Finishes
Brass, nickel, or white powder-coat — suits traditional, transitional, or modern walls.
Shade Material — Choose at Checkout
Ceramic shades are translucent — light passes through the material for a softer glow. Aluminum shades are opaque metal — more durable in shipping with no breakage risk.
Metal Finish — Choose at Checkout
Brass
Warm polished brass — classical, traditional, pairs with cream walls and oak.
Nickel
Brushed nickel — versatile silver-warm, suits transitional and modern interiors.
White
Powder-coated white — minimal, recedes against light walls.

FAQ
Ceramic shade or aluminum shade — which should I choose? +
Pick ceramic if you want soft, translucent light — the bulb glow passes through the ceramic material for a warm, gentle wash. Pick aluminum if you want crisper directional light and don't need translucent glow — aluminum is also more durable in shipping with zero breakage risk. Both produce the same parasol silhouette, just different light qualities.
What bulb does it take? +
One E26 (North America) or E27 (EU/UK/AU) standard-base bulb up to 25W. We recommend a warm white (3000K) LED for residential ambiance. Vintage Edison-style filament bulbs also work well — the bulb is partially visible from below the cone, and a filament bulb adds workshop character. Bulb not included.
How far does it project from the wall? +
Wall projection is 32 cm (12.6") — measured from the wall surface to the front edge of the shade. This is a substantial projection suited to wider walls; for narrow hallways or tight spaces, measure your clearance before ordering.
Can I order it as a pair? +
Yes — works beautifully in pairs flanking a bed, fireplace, or large mirror. Just order two units in matching finish. For matched-batch consistency on larger orders, contact us first.
Is it dimmable? +
The fixture itself doesn't dim, but it becomes fully dimmable when paired with a dimmable LED bulb and a standard TRIAC wall dimmer (both sold separately).
Product features
Product features
- Hand-finished in natural materials — alabaster, marble, brass, and blown glass — so slight variation in veining, grain, or patina between pieces is normal and expected.
- Hardwired or plug-in per listing; check the individual product page for the exact wiring type and included cord length.
- Compatible with standard dimmer switches unless the listing notes otherwise.
- Bulb base type (e.g. E12, E26) is listed on each product page; bulbs are not included unless stated.
- Select pieces are made to order — see the product page for current lead time before ordering.
Materials and care
Materials and care
- Alabaster, marble & stone: dust with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water and household cleaners — they can etch or stain natural stone.
- Brass & metal finishes: wipe with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which will strip the patina.
- Fabric shades: spot clean only with a dry cloth.
- Glass: apply a mild glass cleaner to a soft cloth, not directly to the fixture.
- Always turn off and let the fixture cool before cleaning.
- Keep fixtures away from direct moisture unless the listing specifies it's rated for outdoor or wet locations.
Styling tips
Styling tips
- Wall sconces: mount at 60–66″ from the floor to the center of the fixture; space paired sconces 24–30″ apart.
- Pendants: hang 30–36″ above a table or counter surface, adjusting for ceiling height.
- Chandeliers: as a general sizing guide, allow roughly 2.5–3″ of fixture width for every foot of room width.
- Warmer bulb temperatures (2700K–3000K) bring out the tone in natural materials like alabaster and brass.
- Pairing with a dimmer switch gives you more control over ambiance in living and dining spaces.
