Description
The Mast is a compact outdoor wall light made from solid brass in a raw brass finish. Its body is a short, tapered cone with a top cut at an angle, set on a flat flanged base, and it throws its light downwards; the maker lists it as a downlight. It measures 9.5cm wide and 11cm tall and stands 8.5cm from the wall, so it sits neatly beside a door frame. The IP65 rating settles the weather question: it is dust-tight and protected against jets of water from any direction, so it lives outdoors in British weather all year.
Pointing its light downwards, the Mast is a natural choice for a front door, a porch, a side passage or a garden wall, where you want the step and the path lit rather than the sky. A pair either side of a door works well, and on a boathouse or a cottage by the coast it looks entirely at home. The maker describes it as a neat, compact light, and says these wall lights were designed for outdoor places where an industrial or nautical look is wanted. The maker also says the maritime influence shows in the range's materials, designs and even names.
Solid brass darkens and mellows outdoors, so the bright raw brass will gradually settle into a deeper, softer tone. The cable enters at the rear, so it can come straight out of the wall behind the light and stay out of sight. The Mast takes one GU10 lamp of up to 40W, and the lamp is not included. It weighs 0.82KG, a reassuring heft for such a small light. As a mains light, it should be installed by a qualified electrician. Pick a GU10 lamp in the colour of light you prefer before it is fitted, and it will be ready for the first dark evening.

Frequently Asked
Can the Mast light be used outdoors all year?
Yes. It is rated IP65, which means it is dust-tight and protected against jets of water from any direction, so it lives outside in British weather year round.
What bulb does the Mast take, and is one included?
It takes one GU10 lamp of up to 40W. The lamp is not included, so you will need to choose one separately.
How big is the Mast wall light?
It is 9.5cm wide and 11cm tall, and it stands 8.5cm from the wall, so it suits the narrow space beside a door.
Will the raw brass change colour outside?
Solid brass darkens and mellows outdoors, so expect the bright finish to settle gradually into a deeper, softer tone over time.
Which way does the Mast shine its light?
It throws its light downwards from the base, which makes it well suited to lighting a doorstep, a porch or a path beside a wall.
Where is the cable entry on the Mast?
The cable enters at the rear, so it can come straight out of the wall behind the light and stay out of sight.
