Description
This is a slim picture light with two G9 lamp positions set behind a shallow front bar, 35cm across. The finish is satin black, an even dark tone that keeps the fitting quiet against a painted wall. Light output is daylight white at 6000K, a crisp colour that reads well over pictures and work surfaces rather than soft lounge lighting. A toggle switch sits on the fitting itself, so it can be worked by hand, and the light will dim with a compatible dimmer, which is bought separately.
We reach for this one over framed prints, a run of photographs up a staircase, or a shelf of books where the light needs to fall forward instead of down. It suits hallways, studies and home offices, and it works above a mirror in a cloakroom where a cleaner colour of light is useful for shaving or make-up. The projection carries the light out from the wall, so it clears a frame without leaning over it. We keep this narrower width for smaller pieces and the longer one for a wide canvas.
Capsule lamps are supplied with the fitting, and they are replaceable, so the whole light need not be changed when one comes to the end of its life. It is earthed and intended for dry rooms indoors, well away from splashes and steam. To clean, switch it off at the toggle, let the capsules cool, then run a soft dry cloth along the housing and the front bar, keeping anything damp clear of the lamp seats. It carries a one year warranty. The range also comes in satin nickel and antique brass, and in warmer colours of light if daylight white feels too keen for the room.

Frequently Asked
How far does it stand out from the wall?
The projection is 220mm, with a height of 125mm and a width of 350mm, so it reaches out over a frame or a shelf edge without crowding it.
Do I need to buy lamps?
No. Two G9 capsule lamps are included, rated at 6000K daylight white. If you replace them later, the fitting takes G9 capsules up to 33W each.
Will it work on my existing dimmer?
It is dimmable, but it needs a dimmer suited to LED loads. No dimmer is supplied with the light.
Is there a switch on the fitting?
Yes, a toggle switch on the body, which is handy where the light is not on a wall switch of its own.
Can it go in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and belongs in dry rooms. Choose a bathroom-rated fitting for anywhere near a bath or shower.
What colour of light will I get?
A cool, clean daylight white at 6000K. Warmer options of 2700K, 3000K and 4000K are made in the same range if you would prefer a softer light.
