Description
The Chelso is a 250mm square LED wall light built from powder-coated white metal with an integrated 14W 3000K LED behind a satin-finish transparent acrylic diffuser. The light mounts flush to the wall and casts indirect illumination upward and downward, with the acrylic front panel softening the LED output to reduce glare.
Designed for hallways, staircases, bedrooms and living rooms where wall-washing ambient light is needed without ceiling penetration, the Chelso provides 1,400 lumens of warm white light from a compact 250 x 250mm footprint. The 250mm projection from the wall gives the fitting enough depth to create defined uplight and downlight zones on either side of the diffuser. The IP20 rating limits use to dry indoor locations only.
The white powder coating on the metal body gives a uniform matt finish that pairs with white walls and ceilings without creating harsh visual contrast. The satin acrylic diffuser hides the LED array inside the fitting and prevents visible hotspots or individual diode patterns when the light is switched on. The square geometry allows the Chelso to be installed individually as an accent, in pairs flanking doorways, or in multiples along corridor runs at 1.5-2m intervals.
From Ideal Lux, an Italian lighting manufacturer founded in 1974 and known for accessible modern residential and commercial fittings. The integrated LED is non-replaceable but carries a 5-year warranty covering both the LED module and the driver electronics.

Frequently Asked
Can the Chelso be dimmed?
No. The integrated 14W LED module is rated for mains switching only and is not compatible with dimmer switches or smart home dimming systems.
Is it suitable for bathrooms?
No. The IP20 rating means the Chelso is designed for dry indoor use only and should not be installed in bathrooms, wet rooms, or any location where moisture or splashing water is present.
What colour is the light output?
The integrated LED produces 3000K warm white light, which sits in the warmer end of the neutral white spectrum and gives a gentle ambient glow suited to residential interiors.
Can the LED be replaced if it fails?
The LED module is integrated into the fitting and is not user-replaceable. The module and driver are covered by a 5-year manufacturer warranty through Ideal Lux.
