Dublin 1 Light Bathroom Wall Light - Natural Brass

The Dublin is a single-light bathroom wall light finished in natural brass with a pressed glass cone shade and an IP44 rating for safe use in bathroom zones 2 and 3. The fitting includes a 3W 3000K LED G9 bulb behind the glass, casting warm light through the ribbed texture of the shade. The brass backplate measures 165mm wide and the fitting projects 200mm from the wall with the shade fitted.

Designed for use flanking bathroom mirrors, above vanities or as accent lighting in hallways and bedrooms, the Dublin provides directed downward light that suits task and ambient applications. The pressed glass shade diffuses the point source of the G9 bulb into softer general illumination without visible glare. The 246mm overall height fits comfortably in standard 2.4m ceiling-height bathrooms without dominating the wall plane.

The natural brass finish carries a soft golden tone that develops a lived-in patina over time as the metal oxidises. This works in both traditional bathrooms with period fittings and in warmer contemporary spaces where brass accents provide contrast to white tiles and sanitaryware. The ribbed pressed glass shade adds texture without being heavily decorative, keeping the visual weight restrained. The IP44 rating protects the internal electrical components from moisture and water splashes typical of bathroom environments.

What bathroom zones is it suitable for?

The IP44 rating makes the Dublin suitable for bathroom zones 2 and 3 — areas outside the shower enclosure or bath tub but still subject to moisture. It is not rated for zone 0 or zone 1, which are areas directly inside or above the bath or shower tray.

Is the bulb replaceable?

Yes. The fitting includes a 3W 3000K LED G9 bulb, which is a standard replaceable bulb type. Replacement G9 LEDs are widely available and typically last 15,000-25,000 hours depending on brand and usage.

Can it be used outside the bathroom?

Yes. The Dublin is often used in hallways, bedrooms and living rooms as accent lighting or flanking artwork. The IP44 rating provides more environmental protection than most indoor wall lights require, so it is suitable for any interior application.

Does the natural brass finish tarnish?

Natural brass oxidises over time and develops a darker patina. This is a characteristic of unlacquered brass and is considered part of its aesthetic. If a consistent golden tone is preferred, periodic polishing with a soft cloth and brass cleaner will maintain the original finish.
