Know before you buy
This fixture is designed specifically for hardwired installation. If you select the version with an integrated switch, it still requires a direct connection to your wall's electrical junction box.
The optional integrated switch allows you to turn the lamp on and off directly at the fixture. This is particularly useful if you do not have a dedicated wall switch controlling the outlet or junction box.
Both sizes use an opaline sphere to diffuse light evenly, but the larger 7.9-inch model provides a more substantial presence and a wider spread of ambient light compared to the 5.5-inch version.
The choice between black and champagne finishes is strictly aesthetic. Both finishes are applied to the same high-quality metal structure, so your decision should be based on which color best complements your interior hardware and decor.
While the design is categorized as a wall lamp, its mounting system is engineered specifically for vertical wall surfaces. It is not intended for ceiling installation.
