Cuadrax 1 Light Glass Wall Light With Switch - Antique Brass

The Cuadrax is a single-bulb wall light with a clear optical glass cube shade mounted on an antique brass arm and backplate, fitted with an integrated on/off switch on the backplate itself. The glass cube measures approximately 60mm across and is formed from two layers: a smooth square outer shell and a ribbed tubular core visible through the clear glass, creating a three-dimensional optical effect when the bulb is lit.

Designed for bedside positions, hallway accent lighting and reading corners where wall-mounted switching is more practical than reaching for a table lamp or pull cord, the built-in switch allows the light to be controlled at arm level without needing a separate dimmer or remote switch. The 135mm projection from the wall places the light source forward of the mounting surface, directing light both upward and downward along the wall while the glass diffuses some light forward into the room.

The antique brass finish shows a warm, slightly aged patina that suits traditional, period and transitional interiors where polished metals would appear too bright. The compact 85mm width and 140mm height keep the fitting unobtrusive on narrow hallway walls or beside headboards in smaller bedrooms. The light takes a single G9 capsule bulb (sold separately), which sits inside the glass cube and is visible through the clear outer layer, so a decorative filament-style G9 can add character when the light is off.

What bulb does it take?

The Cuadrax uses a single G9 capsule bulb, sold separately. Most users choose a 3-5W LED G9 bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K) for bedside or reading positions. The bulb sits inside the glass cube and is visible through the clear outer layer, so decorative filament-style G9 bulbs work well if you want character when the light is off.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, if paired with a dimmable G9 bulb and a compatible trailing-edge dimmer switch on the wall circuit. The built-in switch on the backplate is an on/off rocker switch only and does not dim the light itself.

How far does it project from the wall?

The fitting projects 135mm from the wall when mounted. This forward position directs light both up and down the wall while the glass diffuses some light forward into the room, making it suitable for reading positions beside a bed or armchair.

What's the optical glass cube effect?

The glass cube is formed from two layers: a smooth square outer shell and a ribbed tubular core visible inside the clear glass. When the bulb is lit, the ribbed core refracts and diffuses the light in multiple directions, creating a three-dimensional optical effect rather than a single uniform glow.
