Bahia LED Wall Reading Light With Switch - Black Shade Satin Nickel

The Bahia is a dual-function wall light combining a black fabric shade for ambient light with an adjustable 3W LED reading arm in satin nickel. The shade conceals an E27 lampholder (bulb sold separately) that provides diffused background light, while the articulated LED spotlight below delivers a 4000K cool white beam for close work or bedside reading. Both light sources are controlled independently via separate rocker switches mounted on the satin nickel backplate.

Designed for bedside installation in residential and hospitality settings, the Bahia suits rooms where ambient and task lighting need to be independently controlled without reaching for separate fittings. The 320mm height and 150mm projection from the wall position the reading arm at a useful height for bedside use when mounted 1.2-1.4m above mattress level. The compact 200mm width keeps the fitting clear of headboards and adjacent furniture. The black woven shade diffuses light upward and downward when an E27 bulb is fitted, while the LED arm directs a concentrated beam onto a book, magazine or tablet.

The satin nickel frame provides a brushed metallic finish that softens reflections under both daylight and artificial light, pairing comfortably with contemporary greys, whites and monochrome palettes. The black fabric shade contrasts sharply with the nickel, creating a defined visual edge that works in both minimal and more detailed interiors. The LED reading arm consumes 3W and outputs 200 lumens at 4000K, a cool white temperature suited to reading rather than relaxation. Total power draw when both lights are on is 16W, assuming a low-wattage E27 LED in the shade socket.

Does the Bahia come with a bulb for the shade?

No. The E27 lampholder inside the black shade requires a separate bulb (sold separately). The integrated 3W LED reading arm is built in and does not need a bulb.

Can the reading arm be adjusted?

Yes. The LED spotlight arm articulates on a joint, allowing it to be angled towards the reading position. The exact range of movement depends on the joint design but typically allows 90-120 degrees of tilt.

What height should it be mounted at for bedside use?

For bedside reading, mount the backplate 1.2-1.4m above mattress level. This positions the reading arm at a comfortable height for directing light onto a book or tablet while sitting or reclining in bed.

Are the two lights controlled separately?

Yes. The ambient light in the shade and the LED reading arm each have their own rocker switch on the satin nickel backplate, allowing independent control without needing to switch off both sources.
