Atelier Sconce House Bespoke Plaster Sconce Cast From Your Drawing

Send a drawing, a photograph or a piece of a broken original and we will model it, make a mould and cast it. Most often used to replace a missing sconce in a listed building.

Bespoke work runs to a set sequence so nobody is surprised. You tell us what you need, we quote, you pay a fifty per cent deposit, we issue a drawing or a sample for your approval, and only then do we start making. The balance falls due when the piece is ready to leave the workshop. Nothing goes into production without your signature on the drawing.

Fitting

This is a hardwired fitting and should be installed by a qualified electrician working to BS 7671. It arrives with a standard round backplate and fixing screws. Wall plugs are not supplied because the right fixing depends on whether you are going into brick, block, plasterboard or lath and plaster. It is a heavy fitting at roughly 9.0 kilograms, so fix into masonry or into a timber noggin behind plasterboard rather than into the board alone. We will send a mounting drawing with the quotation so your electrician can prepare the wall before delivery.
