Andrea 1 Light Wall Light - Polished Chrome with Cream Shade & Black Crystal

The Andrea is a single-arm wall light with a polished chrome backplate, curved arm, cream fabric shade and two black crystal droplets suspended on fine chrome wires. The E14 bulb fitting (bulb sold separately) sits within the tapered shade, which diffuses light downwards and across the wall while the polished chrome reflects ambient light from the room.

Designed for symmetrical pairing rather than solo use, the Andrea suits bedrooms flanking a headboard or dressing table mirror, hallway walls at regular intervals, or either side of a fireplace in a living room. The 530mm horizontal projection positions the shade approximately 400mm from the wall, creating a balanced presence when mounted at 1600-1800mm height. The crystal droplets add decorative detail without the weight or scale of full chandelier styling.

The cream shade is a close-weave fabric with a faint linen texture, warming the light from the E14 bulb while concealing the bulb outline when lit. The polished chrome arm curves smoothly from the 180mm-diameter backplate to the shade bracket, with the two black crystal droplets hung asymmetrically below the arm on separate wires to create movement when air currents shift them. The fitting weighs 0.6kg and fixes to standard UK wall boxes with two screws through the backplate.

Dimmer compatibility depends on the bulb chosen. Most E14 LED bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K work well for bedside or hallway use, while a higher-wattage filament bulb suits rooms needing stronger task light. The polished chrome finish pairs cleanly with other chrome or nickel hardware in bathrooms, en-suites and dressing rooms.

What bulb does it take?

The Andrea takes a single E14 small Edison screw bulb up to 40W. Bulbs are sold separately. A 4-6W warm-white LED (2700K-3000K) provides adequate light for bedside or hallway use.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, when paired with a dimmable E14 bulb and compatible dimmer switch. Not all LED bulbs dim smoothly, so check the bulb packaging confirms dimmer compatibility before purchasing.

How far does it project from the wall?

The fitting projects 530mm from the wall at its furthest point (the front of the shade). The backplate diameter is 180mm, so the arm extends approximately 350mm before the shade begins.

Can the crystal droplets be removed?

The black crystal droplets are hung on fine chrome wires attached to the arm. They can be unhooked if preferred, though this leaves small wire loops visible on the underside of the arm.
