Capri - Matt Black Downlighter Wall Lamp IP44

The Capri has a traditional lantern-inspired shape with the lamp suspended beneath a curved wall arm, creating a clearly downward-facing design. Its die-cast aluminium body is finished in matt black, while transparent glass panels surround the light source. The clear glass keeps the chosen bulb visible and allows light to pass through without the softened appearance produced by an opal diffuser.

The black finish and familiar lantern form suit both traditional exteriors and properties where a classic detail is wanted against brick, render, stone or painted walls.

This single-light outdoor wall fitting uses one replaceable E27 bulb, which is not included. The clear glass allows light from the bulb to spread through the lantern while the downward-facing construction helps illuminate the wall and area beneath the fitting. This makes it useful beside entrances, doorways and pedestrian routes where practical exterior lighting is required.

LED E27 bulbs can be used, giving you a choice of lumen output and colour temperature. The original specification lists a traditional bulb maximum of 60W per bulb. Where an LED lamp is used, a bulb up to 8W LED is recommended.

Compatible with dimmable E27 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.
