Odile Alabaster Cone Wall Sconce. Unlit in daylight, it reads as pale, closed stone — almost a sculpture on the wall, and quiet enough to live with in a room you use every day. Lit, the veins surface like ink in water and the whole cone glows from within. The two states are genuinely different objects, which is unusual for a wall light and most of the reason to own one.

Choose the single and the cone points downward, washing the wall beneath it — the version for a bedside, a stair wall, or a hallway where you want light on the floor rather than in your eyes. Choose the double and a second cone points upward from the same joint. Light goes up the wall and down it at once, and the silhouette becomes symmetrical — an hourglass rather than a drop. This is the version for a mirror (light reaching your face from both above and below rather than casting shadows down it), and for an entry or a stair wall where you want the fixture itself to register as much as the light.

Natural Alabaster

Naturally Unique Veining

No two pieces of stone are ever the same

Alabaster is a natural stone, so every piece carries its own veining and subtle variation in color. The fixture you receive may therefore differ slightly from the images shown.

An inherent characteristic of real stone — not a quality defect.

Good to Know

Want to dim it? Two things have to match

The fixture itself does not restrict dimming — it depends on what you fit. Brightness adjusts only with a dimmable G9 bulb paired with a compatible two-way triac dimmer. With a standard bulb, no wall switch will dim it.

Size & Placement

One Cone or Two

SinglePoints down
Dia 10 × W 20 × H 32 cm ∅ 3.9″ × W 7.9″ × H 12.6″

One cone, aimed down. Washes the wall beneath it and leaves the space above dark — which is what you want where the light should land on a floor or a surface, not in your eyeline.

DoubleUp + down
Dia 10 × W 20 × H 57 cm ∅ 3.9″ × W 7.9″ × H 22.4″

Two cones from one joint. Light travels up the wall and down it at once, and the silhouette becomes symmetrical. The one to choose at a mirror — light from above and below avoids shadows under the eyes and chin.

1

How high to mount it

Beside a bedSingle · 36–40″
To the centre of the backplate, from the floor. The cone points down at the nightstand, which is where the light is useful and out of your eyeline while lying down.
Beside a bedDouble · 40–44″
Higher than the single, because the fixture is 10″ taller and the upper cone needs clear wall above it. Check the lower cone clears the nightstand by at least 8″.
Flanking a mirrorDouble · 64–66″
Puts the joint at roughly eye level, so light arrives from above and below at once. This is the configuration and height that actually flatters a face.
Down a hallwayEither · 60–66″
Space 8–10 ft apart so the pools overlap slightly. Check the 7.9″ projection first — not for a passage under 36″ wide.
Up a stair wallDouble · follow the rise
Mount each at the same height above its own tread rather than level with each other, so the line of fixtures climbs with the staircase.
Buying a pair36–48″ apart
Centre to centre, either side of a bed or a mirror. Closer than 36″ and the two start reading as one cluttered fitting rather than a pair.
The design

Three Parts. Nothing Spare.

Count the parts on a wall light sometimes. It is usually more than you would guess.

Most decorative sconces are assemblies — a backplate, an arm, a shade, a finial, a collar, a set of screws all doing their best to look intentional. Each piece exists because the piece before it needed covering up, and the result is a fixture that reads as busy from six feet away and as fussy from two.

Odile has three parts, and every one of them is holding something up.

The backplate A plain brass disc over the junction box. No moulding, no edge detail.
The arm and joint A straight rod to a polished ball — the only curve in the metal.
The cone One block of alabaster, carved. Not sections, not a shell over a frame.

That restraint is what leaves the stone as the subject. Each cone is turned from natural alabaster — quarried, not manufactured — so the veining belongs to one block and no other. And because the shade is carved from a single piece rather than assembled from sections, the pattern runs uninterrupted from top to bottom: no seams, no repeats, no point where one piece of rock meets another. You are looking at a continuous slice of something that took a very long time to form.

Unlit in daylight, it reads as pale, closed stone — closer to a small sculpture than to a light fitting, and quiet enough to live with in a room you use every day. Lit, the veins surface like ink in water and the whole cone glows from within. Those are two genuinely different objects on the same wall, which is unusual for a sconce and most of the reason to own one.

The metal stays out of the way deliberately. Against white plaster the brass reads as a thin warm line; against travertine or limewash it almost disappears into the wall. What you see is a piece of stone standing off a wall, and a shadow beneath it. On a textured wall in afternoon sun, that shadow is half of what the fixture is doing — which is why it is worth mounting on a wall with something to catch it.

— Nothing added to make it look designed. —
The Stone

Want a particular veining?

Every plate is different, so the one that arrives won't match these photographs exactly. That is what real stone does.

If you want it paler and more even, or with more grey movement, or warmer in tone — tell us before you order and we'll select the stone to suit. Send a photo of your room and we'll pick something that sits with it.

What we can't do is copy a picture. We can choose a direction, not reproduce a pattern. Email support@vidirlighting.com

Questions, Answered

Common Questions

The things people ask before they order.

Single or double — which should I pick?
Single for a bedside, hallway or stair wall — it lights downward. Double for a mirror, because light from above and below avoids shadows under the eyes.
Is it real stone?
Yes — natural alabaster on a brass body, not resin. Each cone is carved from one block, so the veining runs unbroken.
Will mine look like the photo?
Close, but never identical — and on a pair the two cones won't match each other. That's quarried stone, not a fault. Ask and we'll photograph yours before it ships.
How high should I mount it?
To the centre of the backplate: 36–40″ beside a bed (single), 40–44″ for the double, 64–66″ flanking a mirror.
Is it bright enough to read by?
No — it's ambient light. Stone glows, it doesn't aim a beam. Pair it with something directional if you read in bed.
What bulbs does it take?
E26 or E27, not included — the ordinary screw base. Use 2700–3000K warm white; a cool bulb makes alabaster look like concrete.
Will it fit my hallway?
It stands 7.9″ off the wall. Fine in most halls, but not under 36″ wide. Space them 8–10 ft apart.
Can it go in a bathroom?
Beside a mirror in a dry, ventilated bathroom, yes. Not in a shower or over a tub — IP20, no water protection.
Will the brass tarnish?
It warms and mellows slightly over time. Normal for brass — skip the metal polish unless you want it kept bright.
How do I clean it?
A soft dry cloth on both the stone and the brass. No water, no sprays — alabaster is porous and holds residue.

Natural stone lighting

The quiet glow of alabaster

Sculpted by nature, refined for modern spaces. Discover light with a softer point of view.
Hand-finished in stone
The alabaster edit

The Vidir lighting edit

The only shade that glows from inside.

Most shades block light and let it out at the edges. Yet, this stone-textured lampshade manages to achieve exactly that.

01

Translucent properties

Alabaster is translucent. Switch it on and the whole shade lights up from within, veining and all, instead of glowing only where the bulb sits. There is no bright spot to look at, because the light source is the entire surface.

02

Naturally formed

The veining was decided underground, long before anyone cut it. Every shade carries its own pattern and its own faint colour shift — so the piece that arrives is not the piece in the photograph, and that is the point.

03

Durable and long-lasting

Resin and acrylic imitations go amber and brittle within a few years of sitting next to a warm bulb. Stone does not age that way. The shade you unpack is the shade you will have in twenty years.

Designed for better living

Stone Light Fixtures

Natural stone is different from metal or glass. Understanding these points before you buy ensures there won't be any surprises after installation.
01

Light Color Defines the Look

Use warm white (2700K). The stone itself has an off-white, creamy tone; cool light passing through it makes it look grayish and dingy, whereas warm light brings out that honey-like hue seen in the photos.

02

Clean Only with a Dry Cloth

Alabaster is a natural stone that absorbs water and cleaning agents, which can leave permanent stains. Disconnect the power, let the bulb cool down, and then wipe the fixture with a soft, dry cloth—do not use water or spray cleaners.

03

It is heavier than it looks.

The density of the stone is far greater than that of a glass shade of the same size; ensure the ceiling's load-bearing capacity is sufficient for safety.

Alabaster is translucent, so the light travels through the stone rather than escaping at the edges — the whole shade glows, veining and all. Every piece carries a pattern that was decided underground, which is why no two are alike.

02 / Resin Material
Industrially Replicated Surface

Limitations of resin

Resin is cast in moulds, so the "veining" repeats from one shade to the next and the light passes through evenly with no depth to it. It also ages differently: sitting close to a warm bulb, resin tends to amber and grow brittle within a few years.
