Warm Light Up The Wall, Warm Light Down It
A short column of natural travertine mounted on a small wooden or metal base, throwing light out of both ends. It washes the wall above and below in two soft triangles of warm white, which is a far kinder way to light a bedside or a staircase than a bulb pointed straight into the room. Switched off, it is a piece of stone on the wall and reads as deliberate rather than as a fitting waiting to be noticed.
At 6.5 by 6.5 by 16 cm it is small — about the size of a tall mug — so it works in the tight places a lamp cannot go: either side of a headboard, up a stairwell, along a hallway, beside a mirror.
Real Stone, So No Two Are Marked The Same
Travertine is full of fine open pores and soft mineral banding, and the block each shade is cut from decides how it looks. Some arrive warmer and creamier, some greyer and more heavily veined. Lit, the grain shows through the glow. It is the same reason a stone worktop never quite matches the sample, and it is the point of buying stone rather than something moulded to look like it.
Three Ways To Have It
Choose the round shade on a walnut base for the softest, most organic version, the square shade on walnut for something a little more architectural, or the square shade on a metal base when you want a crisper, more modern edge to it. The LED is warm white throughout, which is what keeps the travertine looking honey-coloured rather than grey.

Small enough for the wall where a lamp was never going to fit.
Two Soft Triangles Of Light
The beam leaves both ends of the column, washing the wall above and below rather than firing into the room. It is a far kinder way to light a bedside or a stairwell, and it means you can leave it on late without it becoming the brightest thing in the room.
Cut From Stone, Not Moulded To Look Like It
Travertine carries fine open pores and soft mineral banding, and the block each shade comes from decides how it reads. Some arrive creamier, some greyer and more veined. Lit, the grain shows through the glow, which is the whole reason to buy the stone version.
Round Or Square, Walnut Or White
The round shade on a walnut base is the softest, most organic of the three. Square on walnut is a little more architectural. Square on a white base is the one that disappears into a pale wall and leaves only the light behind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How big is it?
65 by 65 by 160 mm, so roughly the footprint and height of a tall mug. That is small enough for a narrow hallway wall or the space beside a headboard where a table lamp would be in the way.
What colour is the light?
Warm white on every version. That matters with travertine, because a warm bulb keeps the stone looking honey-coloured while a cool one flattens it towards grey.
Is the bulb replaceable?
The LED is integrated into the fitting rather than being a separate bulb you screw in, which is what keeps the body this compact. In practice LEDs of this kind run for many thousands of hours.
Can I fit it myself?
It mounts to a wall plate like any sconce. If you are replacing an existing wall light and you are comfortable doing that, it is straightforward. For a brand new fixed point, use an electrician.
Will mine look exactly like the photograph?
The shape and finish will, the markings will not. Each shade is cut from natural stone, so the banding and pore pattern are particular to your piece. If you order two for either side of a bed, expect them to be a matched pair rather than identical twins.
