{"product_id":"alnwick-travertine-drum-wall-light","title":"Alnwick Travertine Drum Wall Light","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tall walnut backplate standing vertically on the wall, with a shallow travertine drum pushed through it about two thirds of the way up. The stone reads as a band crossing the wood rather than as a shade attached to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the drum is only 4 cm deep and open top and bottom, the light leaves in two thin sheets that run up and down the wood behind it. You end up looking at a lit strip of walnut with a stone bar across it, which is a very different object from a lamp on a bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it earns its place\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHallways.\u003c\/strong\u003e The vertical proportion suits the tall narrow walls between doors in a Victorian terrace.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStaircase walls.\u003c\/strong\u003e Reads well from below and from above, and the wood catches light from both directions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEither side of a bed.\u003c\/strong\u003e Slim enough not to crowd a headboard, tall enough to hold its own against one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhere you want to see the wood.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the fitting in the range where the walnut is the larger surface, not the trim.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReal stone, so no two are the same\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly 4 cm of stone is on show, which means you are looking at a narrow horizontal slice of the block. That slice can be almost uniform or can carry a band straight across the middle, and there is no way to choose. The walnut behind it has its own grain and varies too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHard wired, and a job for a qualified electrician. The backplate is 23 cm tall, so mark the top and bottom before drilling rather than working from the centre. In a hallway, put the stone band at around 1.5 m off the floor, which leaves the wood running above and below it at eye level. For a pair, align the stone bands rather than the plates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Travertina","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54619445002581,"sku":"TRV-WL-ALN-STN","price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1070\/8212\/1557\/files\/travertine-wall-light-drum-cream-09-1.webp?v=1786550783","url":"https:\/\/travertina.co.uk\/products\/alnwick-travertine-drum-wall-light","provider":"Travertina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
