The Dar Lighting Tobiah TOB0950 is a two-light bathroom wall light in a polished chrome finish with individual clear glass rods. Inspired by the decorative lighting found on 1920s ocean liners, it combines a curved glass-fronted design with clean chrome detailing. The glass rods catch and scatter light from two G9 bulbs, creating sparkling reflections while providing useful illumination. Measuring 30 cm high, 10 cm wide and 9 cm deep, Tobiah works particularly well beside bathroom mirrors, above vanity areas or as a matching pair. Its IP44 rating makes it suitable for appropriate bathroom locations, including zones 1 and 2. The fitting can also be mounted vertically or horizontally, providing flexibility for different wall layouts and interior designs.
The Tobiah features individual clear glass rods arranged within a curved polished chrome frame. The vertical rods form a decorative cylindrical surface, while the chrome details at the top, bottom and rear create a neat, structured appearance.
Inspired by the glamour of 1920s ocean liners and classic hotel lighting, the design introduces period character without appearing overly traditional. When illuminated, the glass catches and scatters light, producing distinctive reflections and highlights.
Its polished chrome finish complements contemporary bathroom taps, mirrors and accessories. The combination of clear glass and reflective metal also makes Tobiah suitable for hallways, bedrooms and other interiors where decorative wall lighting is desired.
The Tobiah requires two G9 bulbs, each with a maximum specified wattage of 5W. Bulbs are not included, so you can choose a suitable LED colour temperature and brightness for the intended room.
Positioned behind the individual glass rods, the two light sources illuminate the decorative front from separate points. The clear glass catches and scatters light, creating sparkling highlights and reflections rather than the uniform appearance of a plain diffuser.
The fitting is compatible with dimmable G9 bulbs when paired with a suitable dimmer switch. The bulbs and dimmer switch need to be matched to each other for dimming to work properly.
With IP44 protection, Tobiah is suitable for bathroom zones 1 and 2 when installed in accordance with applicable electrical regulations. It can be fitted vertically or horizontally on a wall, making it adaptable to different mirror positions and room layouts.
As a Class 1 mains-wired fitting, Tobiah requires a protective earth connection.
