Frosted Glass Globe Wall Light

A single frosted glass globe on a small round backplate, sitting close to the wall. The matt glass spreads the light evenly in all directions, so it glows rather than glares and throws a soft wash up and down the wall. It takes one G9 bulb, which is not supplied, and the light colour follows whichever bulb you choose. Pick the 12 cm (4.7") globe for a tight spot or the 15 cm (5.9") for a little more presence.

Key Features

• Even, glare-free glow: The frosted glass diffuses the bulb completely, so you see a soft ball of light instead of a filament. Comfortable at eye level and beside a mirror.
• Two diameters: Choose ø 12 cm (4.7") or ø 15 cm (5.9") depending on how much wall you have. Both sit shallow against the surface, so they suit corridors where anything projecting gets knocked.
• Takes a G9 bulb: One G9 lamp up to 7W, supplied separately. An LED or a decorative Edison-style G9 both work, and the colour temperature is whatever you fit.
• Hardwired backplate: It fixes permanently to the wall and wires into the mains, with no flex or plug on show. Works singly, in pairs stacked one above the other, or in a run along a wall.
• Quiet, geometric shape: A plain sphere with no visible arm or shade seam, which is why it sits happily in Scandinavian, japandi and pared-back modern rooms.
• Covers a small area: Rated by the maker for roughly 5-10 m2, so it reads as accent and circulation light rather than the main source in a large room.
