If you are looking at the Scintilla Iron Pendant Light and wondering whether it comes in two shade colors or just white, the current product page makes it clearer that there is one main shade color and two frame finishes.
The selector currently lets buyers choose between Brass Gold and Matte Black frame colors, while the shade is described as Ivory White / white fabric rather than being offered as a separate color variant. That means the difference you are seeing in the photos is most likely the frame finish, or the light being on versus off, rather than a second shade.
What the Scintilla product page currently lets you choose
The Scintilla page organizes its options simply:
| Selection step | Options |
| Step 1: Frame Color | Brass Gold / Matte Black |
| Step 2: Overall Size | 17" / 21" |
There is no step for shade color. The page does not currently offer a selector between a white shade and a second shade tone. You are choosing the metal frame finish and size. The shade itself is not a variable that buyers are being asked to pick between.
What color is the shade actually listed as?
In the details and specs section, the Scintilla is described as:
- Materials: Iron + Fabric
- Color: Brass and Ivory White / Gold + Ivory White
Both frame-color variants, Brass Gold and Matte Black, are paired with the same Ivory White fabric shade. The shade is a single color: white fabric.

Why the product photos may make it look like there are two shade colors
This is where the confusion most often starts, and there are actually two distinct causes.
The first two images show the light on and off.
The most prominent images at the top of the Scintilla product gallery appear to show two different shades: one with a warm golden glow, one with a clean white appearance. These are not two different shade colors. They are the same Ivory White shade, photographed in two states: lit from within (a warm amber glow visible through the fabric) and unlit (the fabric appears white and neutral).
This is a natural and expected property of fabric pendant shades; the light source inside changes how the color reads from the outside.
The gallery then shows two different frame finishes.
Further into the gallery, buyers see one photo in a gold frame and another in a black frame, both in the same shade of white. If you are scanning quickly, it is easy to read them as two separate shades rather than two frame options for the same shade.
There is also a gallery image with an unexpected alt text.
One image in the Scintilla gallery currently carries the alt text: "Draven fabric pendant light with white shade and black metal frame." This reference to a different product name (Draven) adds another layer of visual confusion; it is most likely a content or template asset carried over from another product page, and it does not change what the selector offers.
But it can make buyers question which images belong to the Scintilla and which are reference images from another fixture.
What buyers are seeing is most likely two different frame finishes around the same white fabric shade, plus the natural warm glow of the shade when the light is switched on, not two separately selectable shade colors.

What we can safely conclude from the current page
Based on what the Scintilla product page currently makes public:
- The shade is one color: Ivory White / white fabric
- The first two gallery images show the same shade, lit and unlit; not two shade color options
- The frame comes in two color options: Brass Gold or Matte Black
- There is no shade color selector on the current page
- The "Draven" alt text on one gallery image appears to be a content inconsistency, not a separate product or variant
The real question is not whether the Scintilla comes in two shade colors, but whether the page shows two frame-color versions around the same white fabric shade, and whether one of those "different-looking" images is simply the light being turned on.
Final answer for buyers comparing the photos
If you are trying to decide between the two versions of Scintilla, the choice is about frame color, not shade color.
| Brass Gold Frame | Matte Black Frame | |
| Shade color | Ivory White | Ivory White |
| Frame finish | Warm gold/brass tone | Flat, dark matte |
| Best pairing | Warm interiors, gold hardware accents | Modern or dark interiors, black hardware |
| Light-on appearance | Warm amber glow through white fabric | Warm amber glow through white fabric |
Both versions will look the same when the light is switched on, with the shade glowing warm through the fabric regardless of the frame you choose. The frame is the only visual decision here.
