Douille Wall Light - Aged Brass

Description

Description
The Douille is a wall-mounted pendant light in aged brass with a ribbed glass shade suspended on a twisted fabric cord. An arched bracket extends from a circular backplate, and the E27 lampholder hangs on 1000mm of adjustable cord threaded through the bracket, allowing the drop to be shortened to suit wall heights and room proportions.

Designed for hallways, bedside installations, and reading positions where a wall-mounted pendant provides directed light without taking up floor space, the Douille pairs period detailing with functional cord management. The twisted cable runs through the brass bracket and can be looped or shortened during installation to raise or lower the shade relative to the wall. The 197mm projection from wall to shade and 100mm width suit alcoves, chimney breasts, and narrow hallways where a ceiling pendant would sit off-centre.

The aged brass finish is applied over heavy cast metal, giving the backplate, bracket and lampholder a substantial weight and a warm patina that develops further with handling and time. The ribbed glass shade diffuses the bulb filament while still showing the lamp shape through the vertical fluting, making the fitting compatible with decorative LED filament bulbs. The shade measures approximately 100mm diameter and sits around 324mm below the bracket when the cord is at its shortest adjustment, extending to 1224mm when fully dropped.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does it take?

The Douille takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. The ribbed glass shade and exposed lampholder suit decorative LED filament bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K).

How is the cord length adjusted?

The 1000mm twisted fabric cord threads through the brass bracket and can be shortened during installation by looping the excess behind the backplate or inside the ceiling void. The drop can be set anywhere between 324mm and 1224mm from the bracket.

Is the aged brass finish lacquered?

Aged brass finishes from Elstead typically develop further patina with handling and environmental exposure. The finish is applied to heavy cast metal and may darken slightly over time.

Can it be used as a bedside reading light?

Yes. Wall-mounted pendants are commonly used at bedside for reading without taking up bedside table space. The adjustable cord allows the shade to be positioned at the correct height relative to pillow level, typically 600-800mm above the mattress.
