Sorrelle 2 Light Optical Glass Wall Light - Nickel

The Sorrelle is a 2-light wall fitting built around a square polished nickel backplate with two horizontal arms extending symmetrically to the left and right. Each arm supports a cylindrical optical glass disc held between polished nickel rings, with a faceted crystal drop hanging below each disc. The two G9 bulb fittings sit inside the glass cylinders, positioning the light source behind the optical glass to create a diffused glow that highlights the prismatic facets.

Designed for hallways, staircases, either side of a mirror above a console table, or flanking a fireplace in a formal sitting room, the Sorrelle provides ambient light with directional symmetry. The 17cm projection from the wall keeps the fitting clear of door swings and narrow passage traffic, while the 27cm overall width balances visual presence across a typical 3-4m corridor wall. The crystal drops add vertical interest and catch ambient light from other sources during the day when the wall light is switched off.

The polished nickel finish reads as a cool silver tone that pairs well with grey walls, white woodwork and contemporary monochrome interiors. Each optical glass disc shows subtle variations in faceting depending on how the glass was cut, so light distribution varies slightly between individual units. The G9 fittings accept capsule bulbs up to 33W each (sold separately), giving enough output for ambient room lighting rather than task lighting. The 1.5kg combined weight requires fixing into solid masonry or a timber batten rather than plasterboard alone.

What bulbs does the Sorrelle take?

The fitting takes two G9 capsule bulbs with a maximum wattage of 33W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED G9 capsules between 2.5-4W for ambient hallway or sitting room lighting.

Can it be fitted to plasterboard?

At 1.5kg the Sorrelle should be fixed into solid masonry or a timber batten rather than plasterboard alone. If the wall is plasterboard-over-stud, fix into the stud position or use a suitable cavity fixing rated to carry the weight.

What is the optical glass effect?

The optical glass discs are cut with prismatic facets that diffuse light passing through them, creating a soft glow around the edges of each cylinder rather than a hard spotlight beam. The faceting also catches ambient light when the fitting is switched off.
