Linear Tandem Alabaster Wall Lamp

They'll have the same form, but the stone will be slightly different. Each cylinder is made from natural Spanish alabaster, so the cloudy white and the faint veining are unique to your lamp. The upper and lower cylinders can even differ a little from each other, which gives it a pleasant, hand-chosen feel. The brass-toned collar in the middle is made to the same design every time. Orders take 5 to 10 days on average to prepare before they ship.

It gives a soft, warm glow rather than strong light. The LED is built in at 3000K, and both cylinders light up evenly, so the lamp reads as two glowing tubes. Some light also spills onto the wall around the lamp, which adds a gentle wash and a bit of depth. That makes it great for ambient and accent lighting beside a bed, in a hallway, or next to a mirror. It isn't meant to light a full room or serve as a reading light, so add a ceiling light or lamp for tasks.

Each cylinder is 9cm (3.5") across, and the whole lamp is 44.5cm (17.5") tall. It reaches about 13cm (5.1") out from the wall, which is a comfortable depth for most bedsides and mirrors. In a narrow hallway, remember that it stands out from the wall, and think about whether people will pass close by. A common starting point is hanging it with the center around 150cm from the floor. Tape a strip of paper at the same size to the wall to preview the scale before drilling.

The finish refers to the metal parts, such as the collar and the wall plate, while the stone is white either way. Gold is warm and soft, and it echoes the creamy tones of the alabaster. It suits warm white walls, wood, and classic or soft modern rooms. Black draws a clean, graphic line around the white stone and works well in minimalist or darker spaces. If you're matching other fixtures, such as taps or door handles, pick the finish that's closest to them.

It has a push button switch and isn't dimmable, so it can't be used with a dimmer. The lamp is wall mounted and runs on AC 110 to 240V, which suits most homes. If you're connecting it to wiring in the wall, a licensed electrician is the safe choice. Turn the power off at the breaker before anyone starts work. The stone cylinders hang out from the wall, so secure the wall plate firmly with proper anchors or into a stud.

It's made for indoor use and isn't rated for wet areas, so keep it away from direct splashes and heavy steam. Alabaster is a natural stone that can take in moisture, which makes a damp bathroom a risky spot. To clean it, switch off the light and let it cool. A soft, dry cloth works for the stone and the metal parts. Alabaster is soft, so avoid abrasive pads, glass cleaner, and acidic products. For a mark, dab it with a barely damp cloth and dry the spot straight away.
