Overview
Variations on an essentially spherical form, the Bubble Lamp series is a distinguished and timeless design. The Nelson Ball Wall Sconce features a swivel hinge and an adjustable plug-in cord, allowing easy repositioning of the lampshade without readjusting the wall mount. Inspired by mid-century design, it brings elemental, sculptural shapes — a rounded apple, an elongated cigar, a shapely pear — into your living space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this lamp require an electrician to install?
No — this is a plug-in wall sconce. It mounts to the wall with screws and simply plugs into a standard outlet. No hardwiring or electrician required. The 59″ adjustable cord includes an in-line on/off switch.
What bulb do I need?
This lamp uses an E26 or E27 base bulb (standard US socket), max 40W. For the best warm, diffused glow through the translucent polymer shade, we recommend a Warm Light LED bulb.
Can I adjust where the shade points?
Yes — the built-in swivel hinge lets you angle and reposition the lampshade easily without removing it from the wall. Great for directing light toward a reading nook, artwork, or bed.
What are the different shape options?
There are four silhouettes available: Ball (∅11″ × H15.7″), Apple (∅11.8″ × H11.8″), Pear (∅11.8″ × H11″), and Saucer (∅15.8″ × H8.7″). Each has a distinct personality — choose based on the proportions of your wall and room.
Can I use this lamp outdoors?
No. This lamp has an IP20 rating and is designed for indoor use only. It is not waterproof or weather-resistant. Ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, and reading corners.

The Craft Process
Watch every piece
come to life.
From a single wire to a luminous sculpture — the full craft process, captured in our workshop.
Craftsmanship
From wire
to light.
A four-stage process — drawing on traditional metalwork and a modern atomized-spray finish — turns spare materials into a softly luminous form.
02 / Frame
Frame Welding
Lightweight steel wire is hand-welded into the iconic organic silhouette — light, taut, deliberate.
03 / Material
Material Application
Polymer silk is hand-stretched and precision-sprayed onto the frame, creating a seamless translucent skin.
04 / Inspect
Forming & Inspection
Every piece is individually formed, sealed, and inspected for perfection — texture, finish, and luminance.
Every Room
Light, in every space.
Five forms — pendant, plug-in sconce, table lamp, tripod, wall sconce. A complete vocabulary for the home.
The Nelson Bubble Pendant casts a light, softly diffused glow over the living room — pairing with wood furniture, indoor greenery, and warm tones to create a relaxed mid-century modern atmosphere.
