The profile is pure 1920s: the setback silhouette of a Deco skyscraper, reduced to a fixture you can hold in two hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass is \u003cstrong\u003eseeded\u003c\/strong\u003e — full of fine trapped bubbles that scatter through the body of each slab. Unlit it reads as pale frost, almost stone. Lit, those bubbles catch the light individually and the whole surface fills with a soft granular glow, warmer and far less flat than a plain opal shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUp and down, and the wall between\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen top and bottom.\u003c\/strong\u003e Light escapes above and below the glass as well as through it, so the fixture throws two soft fans onto the wall and glows in the middle.

A run of two or three along a corridor, spaced 5 to 7 feet apart, so the fans of light overlap slightly. Either side of a mirror or a fireplace, where the symmetry of the stepped form does most of the work. Mount the centre of the glass around 55 to 60 inches from the floor for general wall lighting, or 48 to 52 inches beside a bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it plain wall above and below. The two fans of light are half the effect, and they are lost if the fixture sits tight under a ceiling or behind furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow big is the Gradino and what does it cost?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e15.7 inches tall, 7.9 inches wide, and it projects 3.9 inches from the wall (20 x 10 x 40 cm). $490 USD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich way does the light go?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree ways at once. The fixture is open at the top and bottom, so it throws a fan of light up the wall and another down it, while the glass itself glows in between. It gives excellent ambient and reading light, but it is not a task light for a work surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is seeded glass?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlass with fine air bubbles deliberately trapped inside it. The bubbles scatter light individually, so the lit surface has a soft granular texture rather than the flat even glow of plain opal glass. The bubbles are in the material and are part of the making, not a flaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat bulb does it take?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne E14 small screw-base bulb, not included. E14 is smaller than the E26 and E27 bases common in North America; in the United States, E12 candelabra bulbs are the closest widely stocked equivalent, and we can confirm fit for your installation. Choose 2700K warm white — the seeded glass turns golden under warm light and grey under cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it hardwired?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It wires directly to a wall box and is operated from a separate wall switch. There is no plug, no cord, and no switch on the fixture, so installation should be carried out by an electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it dimmable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt runs on a common wall switch and has no built-in dimming, so it depends on the bulb. A dimmable LED or filament bulb on a compatible wall dimmer will dim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does IP20 mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIP20 means the fixture is protected against contact with objects larger than 12 mm but has no water protection. It is an indoor dry-location rating — suitable for bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms, but not for a bathroom with shower exposure or any outdoor location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow far does it stick out from the wall?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3.9 inches \/ 10 cm. That is slim enough for a narrow corridor or a tight bedside without protruding into the space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the glass with a soft cloth and a little glass cleaner, and use a dry cloth on the brass studs. Avoid metal polish, which will cut through the applied finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it work outside the United States?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It accepts AC 110-240 V and carries certification compatible with North America, Europe, and Saudi Arabia, so it runs on either a 120 V or a 220-240 V supply.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Malane Lighting","offers":[{"title":"Frosted Glass \u0026 Brass \/ L7.9\" x W3.9\" x H15.7\" (20 x 10 x 40 cm)","offer_id":67401070182690,"sku":"ML-GRAD-40-FGB","price":490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/6511\/0562\/files\/cc87f64f61575bb6809d4c5211c26994.png?v=1790713929","url":"https:\/\/malanelighting.com\/products\/gradino-wall-sconce","provider":"Malane Lighting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
