Description
The Paola is a 2-light wall light built around a silver-painted metal frame that forms two scrolled arms, each holding a conical black fabric shade. An integrated rocker switch sits at the base of the frame, allowing the fitting to be controlled independently of the main room lighting. Two E14 bulb sockets sit behind the black fabric shades, which diffuse the light into a warm, softened glow.
Designed for hallways, bedrooms and living rooms where wall-mounted reading or ambient lighting is needed, the Paola suits traditional and transitional interiors. The 210mm projection from the wall places the shades clear of the mounting surface, making the fitting useful as bedside lighting when wall space beside the bed is limited. The integrated switch removes the need for a separate pull cord or remote control. The fitting can be paired with dimmable E14 LED candle bulbs to adjust brightness via a compatible dimmer switch on the wall circuit.
The silver-painted finish on the metal frame has a warm, aged tone rather than a bright chrome or polished nickel appearance, pairing comfortably with warm greys, creams and wood tones. The black fabric shades measure approximately 120mm across the top and 160mm at the base, creating a tapered profile that reduces the visual weight of the fitting. Optional glass droplets can be added to the loops beneath each shade for additional decorative detail, or removed entirely for a cleaner silhouette. The combined metal frame, fabric shades and optional glass give the fitting an overall width and height of 320mm and 340mm respectively.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Paola take?
The Paola uses two E14 small Edison screw bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this fitting with 4-6W LED candle bulbs in 2700K warm white for soft ambient or reading light. The maximum wattage depends on the bulb type chosen.
Is the Paola dimmable?
Yes, when fitted with dimmable E14 bulbs and controlled by a compatible wall dimmer switch on the circuit. The integrated rocker switch on the fitting itself is an on/off control only and does not provide dimming.
Are the glass droplets included?
The glass droplets shown in the image are optional decorative additions. Check the product listing or contact us to confirm whether they are included with this particular model, as Mantra offers the Paola in variants with and without the glass detail.
How is the fitting installed?
The Paola mounts to a standard UK wall box using two screws through the backplate. The integrated switch requires a permanent live feed to the fitting, so the wall circuit should be wired accordingly. A qualified electrician is recommended for installation.
