Piovaro Wall Lamp

The piece

Piovaro Island Collection · Sheltered Outdoor · Weathered Brass

From the Piovaro Island Collection — a fully enclosed wall lamp designed for sheltered outdoor spaces: covered porches, verandas, awnings, and roofed entryways. Cast in solid brass and finished to develop a distinctive natural patina over time, the Piovaro brings refined coastal charm to protected exteriors — durable in humid, breezy conditions, considered in its proportions, but not built for direct rain or unsheltered exposure.

FAQ

Will the brass develop a patina over time? +

Yes — solid brass naturally develops a deeper, weathered patina over time, especially in humid or coastal sheltered environments. This is part of the Piovaro Island Collection's design intent. If you prefer a stable, unchanging finish, choose Matte Black or Silver instead.

Can I use this with my 12V outdoor lighting system? +

No. The Hardy operates on AC 110V only. Connecting it to a 12V low-voltage landscape transformer will not work and may damage the fixture. If you need a 12V option, please look at a different fixture in our outdoor range.

Which bulb should I use? +

A G4 bi-pin LED bulb rated for 110V AC. We recommend a warm white (2700K) LED at 2–3W for an ambient, pathway-friendly glow. Avoid 12V G4 bulbs — they will not work with this fixture.

Can I install this in a fully exposed outdoor position? +

No. The Hardy is designed for sheltered outdoor use — covered porches, verandas, awnings, pergolas with a solid roof, gazebos, or roofed entryways. Avoid positions where the lamp would be hit by direct rain, sprinklers, or pooling water. The brass housing handles humidity, breeze, and salt air, but it is not rated for direct precipitation.

Where does the Hardy work best given its size? +

Given its compact 10 cm height, the Piovaro is ideal for: pathway accent lighting (mounted at low wall level), framing entry doors with a pair, marker lighting along stairs, garden wall punctuation, or as a series along a fence line. It is not intended as a primary porch light.

How do I care for the finish? +

Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. For coastal locations, an occasional wipe with a slightly damp cloth removes salt residue. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes — they will strip the patina or matte finish. The brass finishes are designed to age naturally; this is not a defect.

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.
