Description
The Mona is a 762mm tall wall light built around two G9 LED bulbs housed inside a frosted glass cylinder, framed top and bottom by natural brass bands and supported on a central brass spine. The fixture includes both bulbs (2 x 3W LED, 3000K) and carries an IP44 rating, making it suitable for bathroom zones 2 and 3 or any other damp interior location.
Designed for vanity lighting flanking a bathroom mirror, hallway accent positions, or bedside reading in mid-century and contemporary interiors, the Mona provides 6W of warm white LED output through the frosted glass diffuser. The vertical orientation and 762mm height give the light a column-like presence on the wall, projecting 117mm from the mounting surface with a 204mm width. The dual-bulb configuration balances light distribution from top to bottom, reducing harsh shadows under the chin when used as mirror lighting.
The natural brass finish is unlacquered and will develop a patina over time as it oxidises, shifting from the bright gold tone shown when new to a warmer, darker amber with age. The frosted glass cylinder conceals the bulbs themselves while softening the 3000K LED output into a diffuse glow. The central brass spine that runs the full height of the fixture gives structural continuity between the top and bottom mounting points, with the glass cylinder sitting proud of the spine to create a layered profile when viewed from the side.
At 117mm projection, the Mona sits comfortably on walls with clearance for door swings and pedestrian traffic in hallways or bathrooms. The IP44 rating protects against water splashes from all directions, meeting the requirement for bathroom zones outside the immediate shower or bath enclosure. The included G9 LEDs are non-replaceable integrated units, so the expected lifespan of the bulbs (typically 15,000-25,000 hours) is a consideration for installation planning.

Frequently Asked
What bathroom zones is the Mona rated for?
The IP44 rating makes the Mona suitable for bathroom zones 2 and 3, meaning it can be installed outside the immediate shower or bath enclosure but should not be fitted inside a shower cubicle or directly above a bathtub where it would be exposed to direct jets of water.
Can the LED bulbs be replaced?
The included G9 LEDs are integrated units. Check with Kichler directly to confirm whether the bulbs are user-replaceable or if the fitting requires a complete lamp assembly replacement at end-of-life. Most integrated G9 LEDs in this style are designed for 15,000-25,000 hours of use.
Will the natural brass finish change over time?
Yes. Natural brass is unlacquered and will oxidise, developing a darker, warmer patina over months and years. This is a characteristic of the material. If you prefer to maintain the bright gold tone shown when new, the brass can be periodically polished with a brass cleaner, though this is not required.
What height should the Mona be installed at?
For vanity mirror flanking, position the centre of the fixture at approximately 1500-1650mm from the floor, which places the light source near eye level for an average-height user. For hallway or bedroom accent use, install at a height that balances the proportions of the wall and the surrounding furniture or architectural features.
