The Searchlight Hampton HAM-WB is a decorative single wall light in an antique brass finish with a light champagne ribbed glass shade. Combining a rounded glass design with simple metal detailing, it brings a warm, classic touch to living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining areas. The vertically ribbed glass adds texture and helps diffuse the light from the G9 bulb, making the fitting particularly suitable for supplementary and ambient lighting. Its compact proportions, measuring 18 cm high, 12 cm wide and 18.5 cm deep, make it easy to incorporate into smaller wall spaces or arrange in matching pairs. With a replaceable LED bulb and mains-operated control, Hampton offers a practical lighting option for interiors where decorative appearance matters as much as everyday functionality.
The Hampton wall light combines an antique brass finish with a softly tinted light champagne glass shade. Its rounded, drum-like shade features closely spaced vertical ribs that create a decorative fluted texture across the glass surface.
A circular wall plate supports a short, straight horizontal arm, with a cylindrical metal detail connecting the shade to the fitting. The glass curves gently at the top and has a neat metal rim around its lower edge.
The combination of warm metallic tones, light champagne glass and clean geometric shapes works well in modern classic, vintage-inspired and contemporary interiors. Even when switched off, the textured glass and antique brass finish provide an attractive decorative detail.
The Hampton uses one replaceable G9 LED bulb with a maximum wattage of 3.5W. The bulb is not included, so a suitable G9 LED lamp must be purchased separately.
The light champagne ribbed glass surrounds the light source, helping to soften its direct appearance and create a more decorative lighting effect. The vertical fluting adds texture to the illuminated glass, while the light champagne tint can give the light a warmer visual character.
As a single-light fitting, Hampton is particularly useful for supplementary illumination rather than providing the main lighting for a large room. It can be installed individually to highlight a particular wall area or in matching pairs to create a balanced arrangement.
The light is mains-operated and compatible with dimmable G9 LED 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 an IP20 rating, Hampton is intended for suitable dry indoor locations. Its Class 1 electrical construction requires a protective earth connection.

What bulb does the Searchlight Hampton wall light use?
The Hampton HAM-WB requires one G9 LED bulb with a maximum wattage of 3.5W. The bulb is not included and must be purchased separately. Choose a suitable G9 LED lamp that fits within the shade and does not exceed the stated wattage limit.
Can the Hampton wall light be dimmed?
Yes, it is compatible with dimmable G9 LED 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. Standard non-dimmable LED bulbs should not be used for dimming.
Is the Hampton wall light suitable for bathrooms or outdoor use?
The Hampton has an IP20 rating and is intended for suitable dry indoor locations. It is not designed for outdoor exposure or areas where protection against splashing water is required. For bathrooms and other moisture-prone locations, choose a fitting with an appropriate IP rating for the installation position.
Would this wall light work beside a bed?
Yes. Its compact dimensions and light champagne ribbed glass make it suitable for decorative bedside wall lighting. A matching pair can create a balanced arrangement on either side of a bed. As it uses a single 3.5W maximum LED bulb, it is better considered supplementary lighting rather than a dedicated directional reading light.
Does the Hampton wall light have its own switch?
No separate switch is specified for the fitting. Hampton is mains-operated and designed to be controlled through the room's electrical lighting circuit, typically using a wall switch. As a Class 1 fitting, it requires a protective earth connection and should be installed by a suitably qualified electrician.
