Luminsphere black IP44 wall light, ribbed smoked glass globe, G9

Smoked glass and black metal

The sphere in smoked grey glass, ribbed vertically, lets the shape of the bulb show through. It sits on a matt black sleeve, itself fixed to a round black backplate. Black and grey form a dark whole that stands out against pale tiles.

Light and protection

A G9 bulb of 7 W at most, not included, goes inside the globe. Smoked glass absorbs some of the light: choose a sufficiently bright G9 LED if the wall light has to light on its own. The brightness can be lowered with a dimmable bulb. Its IP44 rating makes it suitable for the bathroom, away from the shower and the bath. Class 2, no switch.

Size

At 12.4 cm high, it projects 16.2 cm. Above a mirror, centre it; as a bedside wall light, fix it at about 1.2 m from the floor.
