Description
The Tilston is a single wall spotlight with a round steel wall plate, a short arm and a domed, cylindrical shade, all finished in a soft sand colour. It is a compact light: 12cm long, 15.5cm high and standing 12cm out from the wall, so it sits neatly beside a mirror or above a desk without crowding the space. It takes one E14 bulb up to a maximum of 40W, and the bulb is not included, so you can choose the colour of light that suits the room. It is rated IP20, which settles where it goes: indoors, in dry rooms, and never in a bathroom or outdoors.
Because the shade tilts on its pivot, this wall spotlight lets you aim the light exactly where it is useful: across a chest of drawers, onto a favourite picture or down over a reading chair. We like a pair either side of a mirror in a bedroom or hallway, where the shades can be angled to light your face rather than dazzle you. It suits a study or living room too. The sand colour is a warm, quiet neutral that sits comfortably with pale oak, linen and off-white walls, and it reads softer than plain white or black against a painted wall.
The body is steel, a strong and hard-wearing material that suits a light you will adjust by hand from time to time. Packed, it weighs 0.725KG. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall, so it works from your existing light switch. It runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply, and as a wired-in light it should be installed by a qualified electrician; the installation instructions come as a download. One practical note: buy an E14 bulb of 40W or less when you order, as one is not supplied.

Frequently Asked
Can I use the Tilston wall spotlight in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is for indoor, dry rooms only, so it should not go in a bathroom or outdoors.
What bulb does this wall spotlight take?
It takes one E14 bulb up to a maximum of 40W. The bulb is not included, so you will need to buy one separately.
How big is the Tilston spotlight?
It is 12cm long and 15.5cm high, and it stands 12cm out from the wall, so it suits smaller walls and tight spots beside mirrors.
Can the shade be angled?
Yes. The shade tilts on a pivot where it meets the arm, so you can point the light at a picture, a mirror or a chair.
Does it have its own switch?
No, there is no switch on the light itself. It is switched at the wall, so it works from your existing light switch.
What colour is the sand finish?
It is a warm, soft neutral, somewhere between beige and light taupe, which sits comfortably with natural wood and pale painted walls.
