The piece

Carved Resin · Distressed Finish · Candle Style

A French country wall sconce shaped from sculpted resin into a flourish of acanthus leaves and scrollwork, with a single candle stem and a small bobeche cup at center. The silhouette borrows from 18th-century French provincial décor — wood-carved chapels, farmhouse foyers, country chateaus.

Each piece is hand-finished with a deliberately distressed surface — pigment is rubbed into the carved recesses while the raised areas wear lighter, mimicking centuries of age. Available in three weathered finishes.

Features

Acanthus Carving

Sculpted resin in classic French acanthus-leaf and scroll motifs.

Distressed Finish

Hand-rubbed pigment on raised and recessed surfaces — every piece reads as antique.

Three Patinas

Old white, antique gold, or old grey — choose the patina that suits your interior.

Finish Options — Choose at Checkout

Old White

Cream wash with golden undertones in the recesses. Soft, French country, pairs with cream walls and natural linen.

Antique Gold

Aged gold-leaf finish, darker in the carved depths, lighter on the high points. Warmer, more formal — château-style interiors.

Old Grey

Weathered stone-grey with darker shadows in the carving. Quieter, more contemporary — pairs with concrete, white plaster, and Belgian-linen palettes.

Each piece is unique. The distressed finish is hand-applied, so the pattern of pigment, wear, and tonal variation differs slightly between units. That individuality is part of the antique character — not a defect.

FAQ

Is the carved body real wood or stone? +

No — the carved body is high-density resin, finished by hand to look like aged wood or stone. Resin allows for sharper carved detail than wood, doesn't warp or crack with humidity, and weighs less for safe wall-mounting. We disclose this clearly so you know exactly what you're buying.

What bulb does it take? +

One E12 (North America) or E14 (EU/UK/AU) candelabra bulb — the smaller socket used in chandeliers and candle-style fixtures, not standard E26/E27. Up to 25W. We recommend warm white (3000K) LED candelabra bulbs for the most period- appropriate glow. Bulb not included.

Will my piece look exactly like the photo? +

The silhouette and finish character will match the photographs, but because the distressed patina is hand-applied, the precise pattern of pigment and wear varies slightly between units. Yours will be one-of-a-kind — that's intentional and part of the antique aesthetic.

Can I install it in a powder room? +

Yes — for a powder room or guest bath away from direct water contact (flanking a mirror or vanity, for example), the IP20 rating is sufficient. Avoid installation inside a shower zone or directly above a tub. For wet-zone installations, consult a licensed electrician about local code requirements.

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.
