Description
This wall light is a white paper shade that sits flat against the wall and widens from a narrow base to a broad, open top. It measures 28cm long, 14cm wide and 28cm tall, a generous size that fills a stretch of wall without crowding it. The paper is creased into soft folds, the top edge has a gentle wave, and its faint, fibrous texture shows most clearly once the bulb is lit. Paper softens and spreads light, and that is the appeal here: the bulb stays out of sight while the whole shade glows.
The light it gives runs up and down the wall as well as through the paper, so it works as a soft glow beside an armchair or sofa, or as a bedside light where a table lamp would crowd a small surface. It suits a hallway or landing too, anywhere that wants a low, gentle light in the evening rather than a bright overhead one. The 180cm black cable drops from the base of the shade and carries a switch on the cord, so you turn it on and off on the cable itself. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs in dry rooms such as a living room, bedroom or study.
It is made of paper and iron, and takes an E14 bulb up to LED 3W or CFL 7W. The bulb is not included, so pick a small E14 LED within that limit; a low wattage one suits the soft glow of the paper. The whole light weighs 0.54KG, and the maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. Our styling tip: the white shade and the black cable make a crisp contrast, so let the cable fall in a clean, straight line down the wall, and hang the shade where its glow sits just above a chair back or bedside table.
