Description
The Crown is a 2 light wall light built from hexagonal metal tubing in a hand-painted graphite grey finish with decorative fretwork bands at each candle holder. Two E14 candle bulbs (sold separately) sit on sconce-style holders that extend from a hexagonal backplate, giving the fitting a height of 289mm and a projection of 165mm from the wall.
Designed for hallways, dining rooms and living spaces where a traditional wall fitting is needed without the bulk of a full-depth period sconce, the Crown suits properties with lower ceilings or where wall space is limited. The 318mm width spans approximately 30cm of wall, making it a practical alternative to wider traditional fittings that would dominate a narrow hallway or flank a small fireplace. The dual candle configuration provides ambient rather than task light, with the bulbs typically positioned 200-250mm apart.
The hand-painted graphite finish shows a subtle water droplet texture where the paint has pooled and dried on the metal, giving each fitting slight tonal variation across the surface. This texture catches light differently depending on viewing angle, adding depth to the matt grey base colour. The hexagonal tubing differentiates the Crown from round-tube traditional sconces and gives the metalwork a faceted profile when viewed from the side. The fretwork bands are cut rather than cast, creating defined edges around each candle holder.
The fitting accepts any standard E14 candle bulb up to 60W per socket. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K to replicate the soft glow of traditional candlelight without the heat output of halogen equivalents.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does it take?
The Crown takes two E14 candle bulbs, sold separately. The maximum wattage is 60W per socket. Most users choose warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K for soft ambient light.
How far does it project from the wall?
The fitting projects 165mm from the wall once mounted. This is shallower than many traditional sconces, making it suitable for narrower hallways or spaces where deeper projection would obstruct passage.
Is the graphite finish painted or powder-coated?
The graphite grey is hand-painted, not powder-coated. The paint shows a subtle water droplet texture where it has pooled and dried on the metal, giving each fitting slight tonal variation and a bespoke appearance.
What ceiling height does it suit?
The 289mm height makes the Crown suitable for standard UK ceiling heights of 2.4m and above. In rooms with lower ceilings the fitting can be mounted higher on the wall to maintain headroom in hallways or above furniture in living spaces.
