Description
A slim bar of antique brass, this one is made to wash light down the face of a large canvas or a long run of framed prints. Its integrated LED draws 18W and gives a warm white 3000K light, kind to oils, watercolours and dark timber frames alike. The spread is wide rather than tight, so a broad picture is lit fairly evenly from one edge to the other. It is not dimmable and arrives unswitched, so control comes from the wall switch or the circuit it joins.
We reach for this size where a shorter picture light would leave the outer edges of a painting in shadow: over a wide landscape above a sofa, a panelled overmantel, or a hallway hung gallery style. At 90cm it is the longest we stock in the range, so measure the frame first and let the light sit a little inside the width for a settled look. It suits sitting rooms, studies, dining rooms and stairwells, and works just as well over a bookcase or a run of shelving as it does over art.
The body is finished in antique brass, a mellow, low shine tone that reads warmer than polished metal and sits comfortably against wallpaper, timber panelling or a deep painted wall. The driver is built in. Keep it looking well with an occasional pass of a soft duster along the top edge, where dust settles first, and skip metal polishes and household sprays, which will dull the antiqued surface. It carries a three year warranty. The same length is also offered in polished chrome and sand black, with shorter versions in each finish for smaller frames.

Frequently Asked
What size picture does this suit?
It measures 895mm wide with a projection of 195mm and a height of 145mm, so it is best over pictures roughly a metre wide or more. Sitting the light slightly inside the frame width usually looks tidiest.
Do I need to buy a bulb for it?
No. The LED is integrated and the driver is included, giving 1257 lumens at 3000K warm white, with a rated life of 25,000 hours.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
No, this one is non-dimmable and should be run from a standard on/off switch.
Will the light reach across the whole picture?
The LED throws a wide 120 degree beam along the length of the bar, so coverage is broad rather than a narrow pool of light.
Can it go in a bathroom?
It is rated IP20, which makes it right for dry indoor rooms only, so keep it to living spaces, hallways and studies.
How should I look after the antique brass?
Switch off at the wall and wipe along the housing with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid brass polish, cream cleaners and aerosol sprays, as these can lift the antiqued tone.
