Travertine Stone Wall Lamp | Modern Japanese Style LED Sconce With A Frosted Glass Globe Shade

Travertine is naturally pitted and banded, so no two pieces carry the same figure and light striking the surface picks out the texture rather than sliding across it. That is the whole reason to choose stone over a painted metal backplate, and it is why this fitting looks different on every wall it goes onto. A painted backplate is identical everywhere, which is precisely the problem with one.

The frosted glass sphere is the functional half. It diffuses the G9 source evenly so the fitting glows rather than showing a hard bright point, and the ten centimetre globe is small enough that the stone stays the thing you look at. Yellow travertine is the warmest of the common stone tones and sits well against plaster, linen, wool and natural timber.

Buy it now for a bedside, a dining wall or an apartment entryway that needs texture rather than more output. It measures twelve by ten by fifteen centimetres, the G9 bulb is included, and it runs at eighty five to two hundred and sixty volts. Stone is heavy, so check the wall fixing is rated for the weight rather than assuming a standard plug will hold it. This is a hardwired fixture and should be fitted by a qualified electrician.
