Description
Banyan is a small switched wall light finished in satin nickel and supplied without a shade, so the shade is yours to choose. The holder takes an E14 candle lamp, and a rocker switch sits on the body, which means the light is turned on and off at the fitting rather than from across the room. At 11cm wide it keeps tight to the wall and asks for very little space. We stock it as a plain working fitting rather than a decorative one, and it is one we reach for when the shade is doing all the styling. Candle shades are optional and sold separately: see our lamp shades.
It earns its place beside a bed, where a switch under your hand saves reaching for anything else, and it works just as well in a spare room, a study alcove or a narrow hallway where a table lamp has nowhere to stand. A pair either side of a headboard is the arrangement we see most often. We would put an LED candle lamp in it, up to 20W, and if you plan to run it from a dimmer, buy a dimmable lamp to match. Keep it to dry rooms indoors.
The satin nickel finish is a soft, low-shine grey that sits quietly against pale walls and painted woodwork, and it shows fingerprints far less than polished chrome. Keeping it right takes very little: switch off first, go over the finish with a dry microfibre cloth, and leave polishes, creams and cleaning sprays alone, as they can dull the plating. It carries a one year warranty. Because it comes bare, it changes character entirely with the shade you put on it, from a small pleated candle shade for something traditional to a plain drum for a quieter look. No shade or lamp is included.

Frequently Asked
Does it come with a shade?
No. It is sold as a bare switched fitting so you can match a small candle shade to the room. The lampholder is E14, so shades sized for candle lamps are the natural choice. Choose one from our lamp shades.
What lamp should I use?
An LED candle lamp, C35 shape, with an E14 base. The maximum rating is 20W.
Can I dim it?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and pair it with a compatible dimmer. The rocker switch on the fitting only turns it on and off.
How much space does it need?
It measures 110mm wide and 180mm tall, and stands 150mm out from the wall, so it clears most bedside tables and headboards.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms only, so bedrooms, hallways, studies and living rooms rather than bathrooms or anywhere exposed to damp.
How do I keep the finish looking good?
Dust it with a dry, soft cloth when the lamp is cool. Avoid metal polish and household sprays, which can mark satin nickel plating.
