Travertine Wall Lights

A travertine wall light, or sconce, sets banded, pitted stone against the wall. Light leaves the stone at its edges or through a glass, wood or acrylic shade, so the wall gets a warm wash. All 45 wall lights on this page carry travertine in the name, from a 10 cm (3.9 in) round to a 70 cm (28 in) bar.

Rounds, tubes and long bars

Seven are made in more than one size: the Japandi Tube stands 16, 23, 28 or 32 cm (6, 9, 11 or 13 in) tall and the Travertine Stone Long Strip 35 or 60 cm (14 or 24 in). The Travertine LED Mirror Wall Light runs 32, 51 or 70 cm (13, 20 or 28 in) long. Three light the wall both up and down, and a fourth does in its largest size.

Wood, glass, switches and wiring

Nine let you choose walnut or a paler wood, and seven pair the stone with glass. For reading in bed, seven rotate or tilt to aim the light, and seven offer a pull cord or drawstring switch. Thirteen have a built-in LED, six name a bulb base (E26/E27, G9 or G4) and six are listed as hardwired. Where you choose the bulb, go warm, 2700K to 3000K, as the guide to travertine suggests. Travertine pendant lights carry the stone overhead; travertine lighting has the rest.

FAQ

How high should a travertine wall light be mounted?

Beside a bed, set it 75 to 90 cm (30 to 36 in) over the mattress. On a landing or along a hall, the middle of the light goes 150 to 170 cm (60 to 66 in) up from the floor; for stairs, measure up from the step.

Is every one made of travertine?

No. 36 name travertine in their materials and two say natural stone. The other seven are mostly marble, some of it finished to look like travertine, plus one travertine-style stone and one made of aluminium and glass.

Can I put a travertine wall light in a bathroom?

Only where it stays dry. Ten are rated for indoor use, one of them for sheltered outdoor spots as well, and two for dry locations only; none is listed as waterproof. The stone is porous and etches, so keep it clear of steam and splashes.
