Dakota Sculptural Wrought Iron Alabaster Wall Sconce
SC-DKT**
MADE IN THE USA
IN-HOUSE DESIGN TEAM
The Dakota Sculptural Wrought Iron Alabaster Wall Sconce interprets the traditional torch form through the movement of prairie grasses. A dramatically flared natural alabaster shade rests within slender forged iron elements that gather into a bound stem and continue downward in an open, tapering silhouette. Made to order in the USA by Ashore Lighting, Dakota brings sculptural presence and softly diffused stone illumination to architectural interiors.
Key Features:
- Prairie-Inspired Forging: Slender, hand-worked iron elements gather beneath the flared alabaster shade, creating an expressive silhouette inspired by natural grasses.
- Flared Natural Alabaster: The tapered stone shade reveals distinctive mineral veining and diffuses illumination. Choose from four alabaster colors.
- Architectural Verticality: Measuring 29" high and 8½" wide, Dakota establishes a dramatic vertical accent without requiring an exceptionally broad wall.
- Ten Signature Finishes: Choose from 10 hand-applied finishes to coordinate the ironwork with the surrounding architectural materials.
- Made-to-Order Customization: Manufactured by Ashore Lighting in the USA, with custom sizing and selected design modifications available by consultation.
Dimensions: 29" H × 8½" W × 5½" D

The Dakota is a wall sconce with the presence of a small sculptural work. Its flared natural alabaster shade broadens at the top, then tapers toward a gathering of slender wrought iron elements. These forged lines rise alongside the stone before converging at a wrapped junction and extending below it. Their irregular lengths create an organic silhouette reminiscent of grasses across the American prairie, tempered by the discipline of traditional metalwork.
Natural alabaster gives the design a second character. When illuminated, the stone reveals layered color, mineral movement, and variations in translucency that distinguish it from uniformly manufactured shades. The photographed fixture is shown in Amber with Red Veining, where reddish bands and pale mineral lines become part of the visual composition. Dakota can also be ordered in Amber, White, or White with Amber Veining. Each shade is formed from natural stone, so exact pattern and color cannot be duplicated from one piece to another.
At 29 inches high, 8½ inches wide, and 5½ inches deep, Dakota is proportioned as a distinctly vertical wall accent. Its narrow width allows the ironwork and alabaster to create a strong line without occupying the breadth of a large decorative panel. Consider it for substantial hallways, entry walls, stairway landings, and interiors where the lighting fixture should contribute to the architecture even when unlit. Pairs can establish a composed rhythm along a longer wall or around a prominent opening, subject to suitable spacing.
Ashore Lighting designs and manufactures Dakota in Dallas, Texas. As a third-generation lighting manufacturer, we make this fixture to order and offer a choice of ten signature hand-applied finishes. Four alabaster colors allow its character to move from warm, richly banded stone to a quieter pale expression. Because we manufacture our own lighting, custom sizing and selected design modifications can also be discussed for a particular project.
Dakota is defined not by ornament alone, but by the relationship between natural stone, carefully shaped iron, and an unmistakable vertical form.
