Frequently Asked Questions
Is the light directed or diffused?
Directed. The brass cone sends a defined pool downward, which makes it a good choice over a console, beside a bed for reading, or anywhere you want the light to land somewhere specific.
Does the hammering vary between pieces?
It does, because it is done by hand. Two mounted together still read as a pair, with just enough difference to show they were made rather than pressed.
Will the inside of the cone glare?
Not at normal mounting height. The cone shields the source from view at eye level, so you see the lit surface below rather than the bulb itself.
Where does it work best?
Beside a bed, over a console table, or down a hallway where you want defined pools of light. It pairs well with softer stone fixtures elsewhere in the same room.
How do I clean hammered brass?
A dry soft cloth, working over the texture rather than scrubbing into it. No polish and no abrasive, since the seal is what keeps the tone consistent.
