The piece

Arc Wall Sconce · Polished Brass · White Alabaster · G9

A curved brass arm extends from the wall plate and arcs outward, suspending a hand-carved white alabaster shade at its tip. The arc form is the defining element: the arm traces a clean geometric curve that reads as both structural and sculptural — a deliberate absence of straight lines in a fixture that is otherwise minimal. The alabaster shade diffuses the G9 source through the stone's own mineral structure, producing a warm, translucent glow that varies with the natural veining of each piece.

At 42 cm tall and 15 cm deep, the Silvano sits close to the wall without projecting aggressively into the room. It reads as a sculptural detail when unlit and as a warm mineral accent when on — suited to bedrooms, hallways, and any wall where a single well-proportioned sconce is the intended focal point.

Each stone is unique. White alabaster carries natural veining, tonal variation, and translucency that differ from piece to piece. The shade you receive will not be identical to photographs — that individuality is intrinsic to the stone, not a defect.

G9 socket — confirm bulb voltage before purchasing. This fixture uses a G9 bi-pin socket rated for AC 110V mains voltage. Most G9 bulbs available in hardware stores are 12V low-voltage — using a 12V G9 bulb in this fixture will result in immediate failure. When sourcing replacement bulbs, purchase specifically G9 AC 110V rated LED capsules only.

FAQ

What makes alabaster different from frosted glass? +

Alabaster is a natural gypsum stone with a semi-translucent mineral structure — light passes through the stone itself rather than reflecting from a coated surface. The result is a glow that is warmer, more organic, and more variable than frosted glass: the light output changes subtly with the veining of each individual piece, creating a living quality that manufactured diffusers cannot replicate. White alabaster specifically transmits light with a warm cream tone even under a neutral bulb color temperature.

What bulb should I use — and why does voltage matter? +

This fixture uses a G9 socket rated for AC 110V mains voltage. This is not the standard 12V low-voltage G9 system — using a 12V G9 bulb will cause immediate failure. Source specifically G9 AC 110V LED capsules from a lighting specialist. For the alabaster shade, a 2–4W G9 LED at 2700K warm white works best: the warm tone enhances the stone's natural cream and produces a softer, more flattering glow. Bulbs are not included.

Can two be paired flanking a headboard or mirror? +

Yes — the Silvano is well-suited to symmetrical pairing. For a headboard installation, position the wall plate of each sconce 50–65 cm from center on each side, at a height where the alabaster shade sits at approximately eye level when seated (roughly 100–120 cm from the floor). For flanking a mirror or artwork, position each sconce 30–40 cm from the frame edge. Both fixtures require hardwired connections, so plan wiring positions before installation.

Is it dimmable? +

The fixture itself is passive — dimming depends on the bulb and wall dimmer combination. Use a dimmable G9 AC 110V LED capsule and a compatible TRIAC wall dimmer switch (both sold separately). Confirm the dimmer is rated for LED loads. Dimming alabaster sconces to 40–60% typically produces the warmest, most atmospheric effect — the stone's translucency becomes more pronounced at lower light levels.

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.
