The shade tapers from 184mm wide at the top to a narrower bottom aperture, directing light downward and outward rather than straight down. A pull-chain switch with a brass ball finial hangs from the bulb holder, allowing the light to be switched on or off without needing a separate wall switch nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for bedside positions, hallways and areas where a wall switch is impractical or inconveniently located, the Clarke provides task lighting at around 1.2-1.5m above floor level when mounted at typical bedside height. The 222mm projection from the wall places the shade clear of the mounting surface, giving enough clearance for the pull chain to be operated comfortably. The downward-angled light suits reading in bed, illuminating hallway artwork, or flanking a bathroom mirror where overhead lighting alone is too harsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black powder-coated metal shade contrasts with the warm brass metalwork, creating a two-tone aesthetic that pairs with both traditional interiors (dark wood, heritage paint colours) and modern schemes using black fixtures and warm metallics. The brass has a low-sheen satin finish rather than high polish, which softens reflections and reduces fingerprint visibility. The shade's vertical brass ribs run from top to bottom, reinforcing the structure and adding a decorative detail visible when the light is off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitting takes a standard E27 bulb up to 40W (sold separately). Most users pair this with a 6-8W LED in 2700K warm white for bedside reading or a 4-6W bulb for softer ambient light in hallways. The open-bottom shade design means the bulb shape is visible, so decorative filament bulbs or globe bulbs are common choices where the light is in an exposed position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitting Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e184mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\/Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e222mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Wattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSocket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE27\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBulb(s) Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGuarantee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 Year Guarantee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/datasheet_elstead_6942.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulb does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Clarke takes one E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 40W, sold separately. For bedside reading most users choose a 6-8W warm-white LED in 2700K. Decorative filament or globe bulbs work well as the bulb is visible through the open bottom of the shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the pull switch work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brass pull chain hangs from the bulb holder inside the shade. Pulling the chain once switches the light on; pulling it again switches it off. This is useful for bedside positions where a wall switch would be out of reach, or in hallways where adding a switch is impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be installed as a pair?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Clarke is commonly installed in symmetrical pairs flanking a bed, a mirror or along a hallway. Each light operates independently via its own pull switch, so they can be controlled separately without needing a two-way switching circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat mounting height is typical?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor bedside use, the backplate is typically mounted 1.2-1.5m above floor level, placing the shade at a comfortable height for reading in bed and keeping the pull chain within easy reach. For hallway or corridor use, 1.5-1.8m is common, positioning the light at eye level and projecting the downward light onto the floor and lower wall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hinkley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51468827328779,"sku":"HK-CLARKE1-BR-BK","price":93.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/hk-clarke1-br-bk_bedc904a-9986-4c2e-8a06-0ed296db5410.jpg?v=1748027049","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/clarke-1-light-wall-light-with-pull-switch-warm-brass-black-metal-shade","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
