Description
The Tomar is a small, quietly shaped exterior fitting with a softly curved body in sand black and a clear shade at each opening. It holds two GU10 lamps, so light is thrown from both ends rather than pooling in one direction, and the narrow profile keeps it close against the wall where space beside a door or window is tight. At roughly 160mm tall it reads as neat rather than bulky, and the matt sand texture stops the black from catching hard reflections in daylight.
We reach for this one on front elevations, porches, side passages and garden walls, particularly in pairs either side of a door where a larger lantern would look heavy. The two-lamp arrangement gives a graphic wash across brick, render or timber cladding, which suits a modern house but sits happily enough on an older one when kept low and repeated along a path. It takes GU10 lamps, and dimming is possible provided the lamps themselves are dimmable. Lamps are chosen separately.
The body is finished in a fine sand black that hides marks and rainwater spotting well, and the clear shades let the lamp do the work without tinting the beam. It is rated for exposed positions outdoors, so it will cope with weather on an open wall. For care, wait until the lamps are cold, then wipe the housing and shades with a damp cloth and dry them off; a soft brush lifts cobwebs and grit from the openings before they build up. It carries a two year warranty. We stock the Tomar range in sand white as well as sand black, with a rectangle version alongside this curved one, and both shapes come as a single-lamp fitting if you want a smaller amount of light in the same family.

Frequently Asked
What size is this wall light?
It measures 68mm wide and 160mm tall, and projects 78mm from the wall, so it stays tight to the surface.
Which lamps does it take?
Two GU10 lamps, up to 50W each. An LED reflector lamp of 50mm diameter is the recommended choice.
Are lamps supplied with it?
No, lamps are bought separately, which lets you pick the brightness and colour temperature you prefer.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable GU10 lamps and pair them with a suitable dimmer.
Is it suitable for an exposed outside wall?
Yes. It is weather rated for outdoor positions and needs an earth connection, as it is a Class 1 fitting.
How should I clean it?
Switch off and let the lamps cool, then use a damp cloth on the housing and clear shades, drying afterwards to avoid water marks.
