The Axelline Alabaster Up Down Wall Sconce sets two spheres of natural alabaster at either end of a slim vertical rod, held off the wall by a short arm and a round backplate. One globe faces up and one faces down, so the sconce lights the wall in both directions while each stone glows softly. Choose Brass, Brushed Nickel, or Black.

Natural alabaster — one of a kind
Each globe is cut from natural alabaster, so veining, tone, and small marks differ from piece to piece, and the two globes on one sconce will not match exactly. These variations are part of the stone, not defects.
Two alabaster globes
Two spheres of real stone sit at the top and bottom of the rod.
Up-and-down light
One globe lights the wall above, one lights the wall below.
Slim 4.7″ profile
Narrow and close to the wall — for hallways, stairways, and either side of a mirror.
Brass
A warm brushed gold that sets off the white stone.
Brushed Nickel
A soft silver tone for cool palettes and modern rooms.
Black
A dark rod and plate that frame the white globes in contrast.

- Turn off power at the breaker before installing — a licensed electrician is recommended.
- Mount the backplate so the rod runs vertically, with one globe above and one below.
- Dust the globes with a soft, dry cloth; do not use water or cleaning sprays on the stone.
- Let the bulbs cool before handling the globes or changing a bulb.
What bulbs does it use?
Two G9 bulbs, one in each globe. G9 is a small two-pin bulb, not a screw-in base, so choose G9 bulbs for replacements.
How big is it, and how far does it project?
It projects only 4.7″ / 12cm from the wall. The full size is W 4.7″ x H 18.9″ x Projection 4.7″ / W 12cm x H 48cm x Projection 12cm.
Does the light shine up, down, or both?
Both — the top globe lights the wall above and the bottom globe lights the wall below.
Does it plug in, or is it hardwired?
It is hardwired: the backplate mounts over a standard junction box, with no plug or cord. A licensed electrician is recommended.
Which finishes are available, and how do I clean the alabaster?
Brass, Brushed Nickel, or Black. Dust the globes with a soft, dry cloth and keep them away from water — alabaster is a porous natural stone.
