Description
The Take Blanco is a 300mm wall light with an asymmetric white metal form inspired by bamboo stems, housing an integrated 6W LED array that delivers 1080lm of warm 3000K light. Four LEDs sit inside the angled tubular arm, directing light forward and downward from the cut end while the white powder-coated metal diffuses a secondary glow across the wall surface behind.
Designed for bedrooms, hallways, reading nooks and landings where task and ambient light combine, the Take Blanco mounts on a 100mm-deep circular wall plate that conceals the wiring and provides a clean edge to the installation. The 250mm width and 300mm height give the fitting a vertical emphasis that works well flanking doorways or above bedside tables where horizontal space is limited. Multiple units can be installed in a staggered pattern to create rhythm across longer walls.
The white finish pairs with cooler-toned interiors and Scandi-influenced schemes where colour is restrained and organic shapes provide visual interest without pattern. The angled cut at the end of the tubular arm references natural bamboo jointing, giving the fitting a sculptural quality that reads as three-dimensional from most viewing angles. At 0.78kg the fitting sits securely on plasterboard with standard cavity fixings or directly onto masonry with appropriate wall plugs.
The 3000K LED colour temperature provides a warm white output that softens the clinical feel white finishes can sometimes carry, making the light comfortable for late-evening use in bedrooms and living areas. The 1080lm output is sufficient for reading when positioned 600-800mm from the task area, but gentle enough not to dominate when used as corridor accent lighting.

Frequently Asked
Is the Take Blanco dimmable?
No. The integrated LED is not compatible with dimmer switches. The light operates at full 1080lm output when switched on.
What mounting method does it use?
The Take Blanco mounts on a 100mm circular wall plate fixed to the wall with screws. The plate accepts standard UK wiring connections and the light body then clips or screws onto the plate depending on the specific mounting hardware supplied.
How much light does it provide for reading?
The 1080lm output is sufficient for reading when the light is positioned 600-800mm from the page or screen. The warm 3000K colour temperature reduces eye strain during extended reading sessions compared to cooler LED tones.
Can it be installed in bathrooms?
The specification table does not list an IP rating, which means the Take Blanco is designed for dry indoor locations only. Do not install in bathrooms, wet rooms or other damp environments unless you confirm an IP rating with Mantra first.
