The piece

Aged Brass · Tailored Fabric Shade · Transitional Sconce

A tailored wall sconce in the language of classic American transitional lighting — a slim aged-brass stem rises from a small rectangular backplate, gently tapering down to a tassel-tip foot. A crisp tapered drum shade in white linen sits at the top, hand-stitched and unlined for a soft uplight. The proportion is upright and disciplined, scaled for hallways and bedside walls.

The brass body is hand-finished — bright on the polish, deeper at the recesses where light catches. Suited to bedside walls, powder rooms, hallways, and flanking pairs above console tables or fireplace mantels. Available in three finishes — Aged Brass, Matte Black, and Brushed Nickel — to match traditional, transitional, and modern interiors.

Matte Black

Soft matte black for modern, industrial, or high-contrast interiors.

Brushed Nickel

Cool silver tone with brushed grain — fresh in coastal and contemporary rooms.

Hand-finished metal & hand-stitched shade. Each piece is finished by hand, so subtle variation in tone and patina depth is part of the character — not a flaw. The linen drum shade is hand-stitched and may carry minor stitch-line variation.

FAQ

What height should I install the Dauphine at? +

For hallways and bedside walls, 60–66″ from finished floor to the center of the sconce works well. For flanking pairs above a fireplace mantel, center 6–9″ above the mantel shelf and space pairs evenly to either side of the mirror or artwork. Always confirm with your electrician.

Can I use it as a bedside reading light? +

Yes — the unlined linen drum casts a soft ambient uplight rather than a focused reading beam, which suits bedside ambiance. For dedicated reading, pair with a brighter LED candle bulb and a TRIAC wall dimmer to control intensity for evening use.

Is the Dauphine dimmable? +

Yes, with the right bulb. The fixture takes a single E12 candelabra-base bulb. Install a dimmable LED candle bulb on a TRIAC wall dimmer and the sconce dims smoothly. Warm white 2700K–3000K is recommended to flatter the linen shade.

Which finish should I pick? +

Aged Brass suits warm transitional and traditional rooms — wood floors, beige and cream walls. Matte Black anchors modern, industrial, or high-contrast schemes. Brushed Nickel reads cooler and works well in coastal, contemporary, and pale-walled interiors.

Can I install it in a powder room? +

Yes — the Dauphine suits powder rooms and primary bath vanities away from direct shower spray. The linen shade should not be exposed to sustained steam or direct water; for shower-zone or wet-area installations, please contact us for guidance.

Care & delivery

Looking after it

Dust with a soft dry cloth. Stone, plated and painted finishes dislike solvents and abrasives, so keep both away from them; glass takes a lint-free cloth and a little glass cleaner. Solid brass is left unlacquered on most pieces and will warm and darken with handling, which is the material behaving as it should rather than a fault. Switch a fixture off and let it cool before cleaning it.

Who makes it

This piece is manufactured for Elio Marchetti by Radilum, our production partner for the collection.

We are a lighting house rather than a factory. We select the pieces, specify the finishes and the stone, and hold the relationship with the maker, and we would rather tell you that plainly than leave it unsaid. Questions about the manufacture of a specific fixture are welcome and we will answer them.

Delivery

Allow 28 to 43 business days from order to arrival, roughly six to nine weeks. Most of the collection is made to order, so that time covers the piece being built in the finish and size you chose, checked, packed and shipped. The same window applies wherever you are.

Shipping is free to Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, with no minimum order.

Returns

You have ten days from receiving a piece to have it on its way back to us, under way inside those ten days rather than simply flagged with us on the tenth. Return postage on a change of mind is yours, there is no restocking fee, and the outcome is a refund to your original payment method rather than store credit. Made to order pieces return on the same terms as stock. Contact us before sending anything back.

Damaged or faulty on arrival

Separate from an ordinary return, and a longer window: twenty days from receipt to report it. Tell us before you send anything, keep the packaging until we have answered, and photographs of both the fault and the box help. Where a piece is faulty, damaged in transit or not what you ordered, we cover the return postage.

Installation

Any hardwired fixture should go in with a licensed electrician. Where a piece has particular requirements, a sloped ceiling, a chain that can be shortened, a specific socket, they are listed further up this page.
