Ribbed Travertine Arc Sconce
VKW05-26521-01
- In stock, ready to ship
A ribbed travertine arc sconce — a horizontal-ribbed natural-travertine cylinder shade hung from a black arc arm, balanced by a walnut-wood ball at the tail, on a round walnut backplate. The arm sweeps the shade out from the wall for a warm downward glow. H15.7″, 8.3″ projection, E27 base, bulb included. For bedsides, hallways, and accent walls.
Black arc arm · wood ball
A curved black arm sweeps the shade off the wall, counter-balanced by a turned walnut ball at the tail.
Ribbed travertine shade
Horizontal ridges hand-carved into natural stone catch light ridge by ridge for a tactile glow.
E27 base · bulb included
Standard E27 socket under a walnut-wood holder. AC 110–240V universal.
About natural travertine
The shade is hand-carved from natural travertine. Open pores, surface pitting, and color banding vary piece to piece — these are core characteristics of the stone, not defects or damage. The depth and spacing of the carved ribs also vary slightly between pieces.
About the walnut wood
The backplate, shade holder, and tail ball are real walnut wood — grain pattern and tone vary by piece, and the photograph shows a representative sample.

- Hardwired wall install — a licensed electrician is recommended. Mounts flush via the round walnut backplate over a standard US junction box.
- The arc arm and tail ball set the balance; mount the backplate level so the shade hangs plumb.
- The E27 bulb is included and replaceable under the walnut holder; a 2700K warm-white E27 LED gives the warmest glow through the ribbed stone.
- Dimmable with a compatible dimmable E27 bulb and a wall dimmer (not included).
- Travertine is a porous natural stone — open pores, surface pitting, and color banding are core characteristics of the material, not flaws or damage. Carved-rib depth and spacing also vary slightly between pieces.
- The walnut parts are real wood — grain and tone vary by piece. Indoor dry locations only (IP20); keep clear of direct water, as stone and wood both absorb moisture.
Is this the wall version of the ribbed travertine pendant?
Yes — it uses the same horizontal-ribbed travertine shade as the Ribbed Travertine Pendant, but as a hardwired wall sconce: a black arc arm sweeps the shade off the wall, a turned walnut ball balances the tail, and a round walnut backplate covers the junction box. Choose the pendant to hang over a table or island; choose this arc sconce for a wall beside a bed, sofa, or hallway.
The travertine has holes and pits — is that a defect?
No — those are natural to travertine. Open pores, surface pitting, and color banding are core characteristics of the stone, not flaws or shipping damage. The shade is hand-carved, so no two are exactly alike, and the rib depth and spacing vary slightly between pieces — that variation is the point of a natural-stone fixture.
What bulb does it use, is it included, and is it dimmable?
One E27 bulb (standard medium base), included. A 2700K warm-white E27 LED gives the warmest glow through the ribbed stone. Dimmable when paired with a dimmable E27 bulb and a compatible wall dimmer (sold separately).
Does the tail ball do anything, or is it decorative?
It's both. The turned walnut ball visually balances the arc arm and gives the sconce its signature counter-weight look, while keeping the composition grounded. It doesn't move or adjust — the arm is fixed once mounted.
Can I install it in a bathroom, and what's the warranty?
Only away from water — it's rated IP20 for indoor dry locations, so keep it clear of shower or tub spray. Travertine is porous and the walnut parts are real wood; both absorb moisture. 2-year warranty on the fixture and wiring; E27 bulbs are standard replaceable parts.

Sizing & questions
Every piece is made to order in our own atelier — here is what most clients ask before choosing theirs.
What are the exact dimensions and how far does it project from the wall?+
Overall height 15.7″, projection 8.3″. The shade is 4.7″ in diameter. The arc arm sweeps the travertine cylinder away from the wall to cast a warm downward glow without glare on the bedside or hallway surface.
Is the travertine shade solid, and what are those holes and pits?+
Yes, solid hand-carved natural travertine. Open pores, surface pitting, and color banding are core characteristics of travertine, not defects. Carved-rib depth and spacing vary slightly between pieces because each is hand-made.
What bulb comes with it, and can I use a dimmer?+
A 2700K warm-white E27 LED bulb is included. The sconce is compatible with a standard wall dimmer and dimmable E27 bulbs (not included). E27 sources are replaceable under the walnut holder.
How is it installed, and does it fit a standard US wall box?+
Hardwired wall mount over a standard US junction box. The round walnut backplate mounts flush to the wall. A licensed electrician is recommended. Mount level so the shade hangs plumb; the arc arm and tail ball set the balance.
Can I customize the size or finish?+
