The alabaster is cut from a single block, so the veining runs unbroken across the face and the light picks it out as a slow amber drift rather than a pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlabaster is a gypsum stone, soft enough to carve and just translucent enough to hold light without turning it milky. Each piece is cut, turned and hand finished in our Wiltshire workshop, then waxed rather than lacquered so the surface keeps a little of its natural chalk. Expect variation between blocks. That is the point of the material and not a fault. Sold as a matched pair, cut from the same block so the veining reads as a set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight, per fitting: 180mm, width 300mm, projection from the wall 110mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: hand carved alabaster with a cast brass frame and backplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: alabaster waxed and unlacquered, brass in your chosen finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLamp, per fitting: 2 x E14 candle, maximum 40W each, dimmable LED suitable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupply: hardwired, 220 to 240V, 50Hz, terminal block behind the backplate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitching: no integral switch, wired to a wall switch or a dimmer circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRating: IP20, for dry indoor rooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackplate: round cast brass, 120mm diameter, covers most old fixing holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approximately 6.8 kilograms for the pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead time: 3 to 4 weeks, each piece carved to order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 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. At roughly 6.8 kilograms it needs a proper fixing. Use the supplied screws into masonry, or a heavy duty plasterboard anchor rated well above the weight of the light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vellum Stone","offers":[{"title":"Antique brass","offer_id":58766937260364,"sku":"SCH-ALB-002-AB","price":1974.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Polished nickel","offer_id":58766937293132,"sku":"SCH-ALB-002-PN","price":2099.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bronze","offer_id":58766937325900,"sku":"SCH-ALB-002-BZ","price":2174.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1089\/3128\/5324\/files\/Vellum_Stone_Ashcombe_Alabaster_Half_Moon_Uplighter_Wall_Light_Pair.jpg?v=1789048524","url":"https:\/\/thesconcehouse.com\/products\/vellum-stone-ashcombe-alabaster-half-moon-uplighter-wall-light-pair","provider":"The Sconce House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
