The story

Canneto, reeds of glass catching the last light

On the shores of the northern Italian lakes, the reed beds sway at the water’s edge. In the last hour of the day, the sun slips behind them and every stem is outlined in a thin line of gold.

Canneto, the Italian word for a reed bed, captures that moment in glass. Faceted prism glass tubes, each with a star-shaped profile and angled ends, are gathered in a half-moon around the light at staggered heights, like reeds of different lengths. Switch it on and the light breaks along every facet, sparkling across the glass and washing the wall above and below with a soft glow.

In clear, smoke, amber or pink glass on a nickel frame, it suits mid-century modern, Hollywood Regency, Art Deco, Italian modern and eclectic interiors.

The glass

Handmade glass, colour that lasts

Made by handEvery prism tube is shaped by hand, so each one carries tiny variations in its facets and edges that make the light sparkle with life.
Colour that will not fadeThe colour runs through the glass itself rather than sitting on the surface as a coating, so it will not fade, peel or wear away over time.
Any colour you likeBeyond clear, smoke, amber and pink, we can make the tubes in another colour to match your interior.

Better together

Buying a pair?

Two sconces, one better price

Select the option marked (*2)

Wall sconces look their best in pairs, so Canneto comes as a pair too. Two together come at a better price than buying them separately.

Questions, answered

Before you order

Choosing your Canneto

Which glass colour should I choose?

Clear gives the brightest sparkle; smoke a moody, modern reflection; amber a warm, golden glow; pink a soft, rosy light that flatters skin tones by a mirror. Other colours can be made on request.

How big is it?

L 12.2″ × W 12.6″ × H 6.7″ (31 × 32 × 17 cm): a compact half-moon that suits bedsides, mirrors and hallways.

Should I buy a pair?

Wall sconces look their best in pairs, either side of a bed, a mirror or a fireplace. Select the option marked (*2) to get two at a better price than buying them separately.

Light and installation

Which bulbs does it use?

E12 (US) or E14 (EU/UK) bulbs, up to 40 W each. Warm white LED bulbs (2700–3000K) bring out the sparkle of the glass and stay cool.

Is it dimmable?

The standard Canneto is on/off only, and fitting dimmable bulbs will not change that. A dimmable version is available on request: please contact us before ordering.

How is it installed?

It mounts to a standard wall junction box. We recommend installation by a qualified electrician, following local electrical codes. It is rated IP20, for dry indoor locations only.

The glass and care

Is the glass handmade?

Yes. Every prism tube is shaped by hand, so small variations in the facets and edges are part of its character and make the light sparkle.

Will the colour fade?

No. The colour runs through the glass itself rather than being a surface coating, so it will not fade, peel or wear away.

Can I order another glass colour?

Yes. Beyond clear, smoke, amber and pink, we can make the tubes in another colour on request. Contact us with a colour reference before ordering.

How do I clean the glass tubes?

Switch off and let it cool. Wipe the tubes with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth and dry them to avoid streaks. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the nickel frame.

Still deciding

Between two sizes? Size up.

The gaps between the tubes let the ceiling show through, so this one reads lighter than its measured diameter. Our field notes work through the rest — the sizing formulas for round and rectangular tables, hanging heights by ceiling, and how the tube form compares to a petal one.

FAQ

Glass Shaped by Hand

Heat, patience and steady hands in every piece.

An artisan shaping molten amber glass with hand tools in a glass workshop.

Handmade Glass Series

Glass Shaped by Hand

Every glass shade in this series is made by hand. Artisans gather molten glass, then turn, stretch and shape it with heat and hand tools until the form feels just right.

No two pieces leave the workshop exactly alike. The small differences in curve, thickness and tone are what give handmade glass its warmth and depth.

Formed in the heat

The glass is worked while it is still molten, so every curve is guided by eye and feel instead of being stamped out as identical parts.
Shaped with hand tools

Traditional tools are used to pull, pinch and smooth the glass, leaving the subtle marks of the maker's hand in the finished piece.
Cooled slowly for strength

Finished pieces are cooled gradually so the glass settles evenly, helping it stay strong and stable in everyday use.

Tiny bubbles, faint swirls and slight shifts in color are natural in handmade glass, and they make each piece one of a kind.

Many Colors, Many Styles

Our glass comes in a wide range of colors and shapes, from deep ruby and ocean blue to soft pearl and warm amber. Pair the tone you love with the form that suits your space, and create a lamp that feels truly yours.

Extremely satisfied.

The brass parts of this lamp have very smooth edges, and the joint with the alabaster lampshade is seamless, without any excess glue or misalignment.

The result is excellent—truly stunning.

Once assembled and lit, the result is stunning. Both the construction of the frame and the quality of the base are absolutely flawless.

An elegant choice for a living room with high ceilings.

The chandelier comes with a very long hanging rope, which can be adjusted at each end. We arranged it in a diagonal cascading pattern. Even during the day, when the lights are off, it hangs there like a modern sculpture, a feast for the eyes.

Instantly transforms a hallway into an art gallery.

We have a long, windowless hallway leading to our bedrooms that used to feel quite dark and dreary. We installed these vertical wall sconces at intervals along the wall. At night, the way the light permeates the translucent stone is stunning. Even without electricity during the day, it is still a three-dimensional wall sculpture.

Setting the mood and texture for the breakfast nook.

I hung these above a small, round dining table in the corner. When I turn on the light to drink coffee in the early morning, the warm yellow glow is very relaxing. The stone itself is not thin, but its light transmission is just right, giving it both a sense of weight and a light and transparent feel.
