Contemporary Dimming Tinge Wall Sconce by Astraeus Clarke Made in Brooklyn, NY
By ASTRAEUS CLARKE
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Inherent in its design, the Tinge series draws the user to the source of light. The brass knob controls the position of the tinted glass disc, which, when spun, manually changes the brightness of light. The analog lighting experience of the Tinge lamp and wall sconce invites connection between human, environment, and design, rendering app technology inessential for a brief moment in the day. Each fixture can be customized, the steel backplate can be powder coated any color of your choice, or any metal plating. The knob used to control the brightness of the light can be plated silver or colored to match your projects needs. The Tinge Wall Sconce is perfect in controlling the brightness of any hallway, restaurant booth...
