{"product_id":"resin-and-iron-disc-wall-light-27-cm","title":"Resin and Iron Disc Wall Light 27 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis disc wall light takes the form of a shallow concave bowl, held flat against the wall like a small basin turned towards the room. It is made from sculpted resin and iron, with a ribbed surface that reads as mineral rather than manufactured. At 27 cm across, it decorates a wall as much as it lights it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA sculptural disc wall light for a bare wall\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost wall lights begin with a shade. This disc wall light begins with a volume: a \u003cstrong\u003e27 cm disc\u003c\/strong\u003e hollowed into a bowl, which sits on the plaster like a small relief carving. The concave form is what gives the piece its depth, because the curve catches light at its rim and lets shadow gather towards the centre, so the object changes as you cross the room. The \u003cstrong\u003eribbed surface\u003c\/strong\u003e runs across that curve in fine parallel lines, and under a grazing light those reeded ridges are the first thing the eye picks up on a disc wall light. A disc wall light of this kind earns its place on a wall that holds nothing else, above a console, a sideboard or a chest of drawers, where it does the work of a small picture while also giving a pool of warm light. The body of the disc wall light is \u003cstrong\u003esculpted resin bonded to iron\u003c\/strong\u003e, a pairing that gives the piece its mineral density without the brittleness of cast plaster. Hung on its own it behaves as an object; repeated as a pair or a trio along a hallway it becomes a rhythm, and the long run of British searching for wall lights either side of a mirror or a doorway is a reminder that two units are often the right answer. Because the fluted lines are shallow, the disc wall light settles against a lime-plastered or slightly uneven wall rather than fighting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications of the resin and iron disc wall light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe figures matter here, and your electrician will ask for them before you do. The disc wall light measures \u003cstrong\u003e27 cm in diameter with a projection of 11 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e from the wall, which is enough presence to be read across a room and little enough to sit in a hallway without catching a shoulder. It weighs \u003cstrong\u003eapproximately 1.5 kg\u003c\/strong\u003e. That is not a heavy fitting, but it is heavier than a thin pressed-metal plate, and it is the number that decides the fixings: a solid wall takes it on ordinary plugs, while plasterboard wants a hollow-wall anchor rated well above 1.5 kg rather than a plain screw; a disc wall light that is honest about its mass saves an argument on site. The weight is also honest evidence of what the piece is made of, since a hollow shell would not come close to it. The light source is a \u003cstrong\u003eG4 capsule\u003c\/strong\u003e, a small push-fit cap that lets a single lamp sit inside a shallow volume, and the fitting runs on a standard 220 V domestic supply. There is one lamp position only; this disc wall light is built to show its material rather than to flood a room, so treat it as accent light and keep a second source in the same space. Cleaning asks for nothing more than a dry, soft cloth drawn over the ribs, which keeps dust out of the reeding and keeps the surface matt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoosing a position for your disc wall light\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive the piece room. A disc wall light of 27 cm reads best with empty wall around it, and that space is part of the composition rather than a waste of it. In a room with a 2.4 m ceiling, which describes a great deal of British housing, the 11 cm projection of the disc wall light is the figure to watch rather than the height: mounted at eye level above a sideboard it stays clear of a passing shoulder, and because nothing hangs below the body there is no low point to duck. In a stairwell, repeat the fitting two or three times at even centres and let it climb with the flight; three disc wall lights at even centres read as deliberate, two read as a pair. For colour, the ribbed mineral surface settles against oak and ash, linen, polished concrete, blackened steel, and walls painted in quiet sand, clay or grey. Choose the G4 lamp with some care, stay inside the maximum wattage marked on the fitting, and pick a warm colour temperature if you want the ridges to stay soft rather than sharp. Switched off, the disc wall light still holds the wall, so do not hide it behind a tall lamp or an open shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA concave 27 cm disc in sculpted resin and iron, a reeded mineral surface, 1.5 kg on the wall and a single discreet G4 capsule: this disc wall light turns a plain wall into something worth looking at. Hang one on its own for a focal point, or a pair either side of a doorway for symmetry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alborra","offers":[{"title":"Brown","offer_id":55266688794961,"sku":"APP-519-MAR-AP","price":186.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White","offer_id":55266688827729,"sku":"APP-520-BLA-AP","price":186.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1089\/9878\/7409\/files\/alborra-applique-murale-disque-1.png?v=1792237813","url":"https:\/\/alborra.com\/products\/resin-and-iron-disc-wall-light-27-cm","provider":"Alborra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
