The Norvelle Wall Sconce features two hand-cut alabaster cups joined at a sculpted brass center, mounted on a round solid brass backplate with subtle bronze tones. The dual-cup silhouette casts a bidirectional glow — soft warm uplight onto the wall above, gentle downlight to the floor below.
At 5.7″ wide × 14.2″ tall with a 4.7″ projection from the wall, the sculptural hourglass profile suits bedside reading, hallway wayfinding, mirror flanking in a powder room, or accent lighting beside artwork. Two G9 sockets (top + bottom) accept any compatible 5W bulb — pair with warm light LEDs for the most flattering glow.
Regarding the Alabaster: Each Norvelle cup is hand-cut from natural alabaster — varying in vein pattern, density, and undertone. While the piece you receive will resemble the images in its overall style, every item possesses its own unique character.

Alabaster is a natural stone known for its smooth texture and translucent appearance. Its origins date back to ancient civilizations where it was used for sculpting and crafting objects of importance. There are two main types — Gypsum and Calcite — with the latter being the preferred choice for lighting fixtures due to its durability and natural veining.
The unique quality of alabaster is its ability to diffuse light in a soft, warm glow, making it a favorite for creating ambient lighting. It is often found in shades of white, ivory, and cream, though pink, amber, and gray variations also exist — each adding its own warmth to a room’s atmosphere.

The process is a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern precision. Each piece begins as raw stone — and ends as a finished object meant to hold light.

High-quality alabaster is sourced for its translucency and veining, then cut into workable blocks.

Each block is cut and shaped with specialized tools — precision ensures form, balance, and structural strength.

Artisans carve patterns — geometric, floral, abstract — enhancing the stone’s natural character.

Hand-polishing reveals the translucent glow — and eliminates every surface imperfection.

The piece is drilled and fitted with components — every connection tested for safety and longevity.

After final assembly, each lamp is lit — to confirm every detail performs as the design intended.
Alabaster doesn’t reflect light — it holds it. Every lamp becomes a small vessel of warmth, shaped by hand, meant to last generations.
Each form shapes light differently — a conversation between stone, shadow, and space.
Alabaster lamps offer more than light — they shape the atmosphere of a room. Whether a focal point or a subtle accent, these pieces bring quietude and warmth to any interior.
