A single curved petal of opal glass, and a drop of three beads beneath it. The glass cups forward off a round wall plate, held at one point by a slim arm that continues past it and finishes in a short column of turned metal spheres. Nothing clamps the glass. The arm hooks it, and the beads below balance the composition.
This is the wall version of the Patty pendant — same opal petal, same bead drop, same hardware language — so the two can be specified together in one room. Sconces flanking a bed, the pendant over the table, one visual idea running through both.
What makes it work
-
The glass curves toward you. The petal cups forward rather than sitting flat against the wall, so it throws light outward into the room as well as back onto the wall behind it.
-
Opal, fully diffusing. No visible source, no hot spot, no glare — you can look directly at it, which matters at eye level beside a bed.
-
The bead drop finishes the line. Three turned spheres on the stem give the fixture a bottom and a sense of weight, so it reads as a considered object rather than a shade on a stick.
-
Compact. 13.8 inches tall and 6.3 inches wide — small enough for a narrow wall, substantial enough not to look lost.
Two finishes
Brass warms the opal glass and picks up wood, stone, and darker paint — the classic pairing, and the one that reads most like jewelry. Black reduces the arm and beads to a fine dark line, so the glass petal reads as pure white form against the wall. Both use the same opal glass.

Where to mount it
A pair either side of a bed is the obvious use — the glass sits at reading height, the light is glare-free at eye level, and the nightstand stays clear. It also suits a hallway, a narrow wall beside a mirror, the return between two doorways, or a living room flanking artwork. 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. Because the petal curves forward, leave clear wall to the side rather than tucking it into a corner — the light needs somewhere to go.
Frequently asked questions
How big is the Patty sconce?
13.8 inches tall and 6.3 inches wide overall (35 x 16 cm), with the glass petal itself 3.9 inches (10 cm) across.
How much does it cost?
$790 USD, the same in Brass and in Black.
What finishes are available?
Brass and Black. The opal glass petal is white on both; the finish refers to the wall plate, arm, and bead drop.
Does it match the Patty pendant?
Yes. It shares the opal petal, the bead drop, and the hardware detailing with the Patty pendant, so the two can be used in the same room — sconces beside a bed or along a wall, the pendant over a table.
Can you see the light source?
No. The opal glass is fully diffusing, so the petal glows evenly with no visible source and no glare. That is what makes it comfortable at eye level.
Which way does the light go?
Both outward and back onto the wall. The petal cups forward rather than lying flat, so it lights the room in front of it as well as washing the wall behind — good ambient and reading light, though not a task light for a work surface.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the glass with a soft cloth and a little glass cleaner, and use a dry cloth on the metal. Avoid metal polish and abrasive cleaners — both finishes are applied and polishing will cut through them.
Can it be used in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is an indoor fixture.
