About the...

Spero Sconce

The Spero Sconce illustrates a minimalist mindset without sacrificing design details that define the fixture. Pronounced metal accents join the leather strap to the shade, adding a balanced contrast between the different elements. The bottom aperture allows the delivery of ample light while shielding the rest of the space from glare.

Cerno

Cerno was established in 2009 by three friends in Laguna Beach, and it still designs and builds in California. That is not a provenance detail for its own sake: it is why the walnut on a sconce is matched rather than random, and why a fixture can be serviced years later by the people who made it.

The work is a conversation between warm and cold. Solid walnut against machined aluminium, oiled timber against brushed metal, with the LED integrated into the body so the profiles stay as thin as the drawing. Nothing is hidden behind a shade that did not need to be there. These are fixtures that look like objects in daylight with nothing switched on, which is the real test of a lamp.

Integrated LED is a deliberate choice rather than a cost saving. It is what allows the geometry, and the modules are serviceable rather than disposable, with rated life measured in tens of thousands of hours. Most owners never think about it again.

Almost everything dims, and dimming is where the walnut and brass earn their place, because warm materials hold up at low output in a way cold ones do not. Pair them with a compatible LED dimmer rather than an old incandescent one, which is the usual cause of flicker in an otherwise good installation. The questions below cover LEDs, dimming and the timber.

Now, for over a decade, we’ve been making modern fixtures. In 2009 we saw an opportunity. Lighting design and energy efficiency had been limited by 100 years of the traditional incandescent bulb. Fixtures designed in America but manufactured overseas often had frustrating quality flaws and were limited by the inherent disconnect in their design-prototyping-manufacturing process. The innovations in incandescent and LED lighting, new technologies started bringing potential for efficiency, quality and beauty that had yet to be thoroughly explored or developed. So we set out to design and build original fixtures right here in California.

“When we first started, we didn’t know what the market was going to demand. But we get feedback from lighting designers, architects and users, and we build the next generation based on that feedback,” “When we’re not working, we’re always trying to get back in the water,”
