Modern Gold Wall Light

The Modern Gold Wall Light is a Scandinavian wall light built around glass and brushed aluminium, and it earns its place in a room long before you switch it on. The output is soft and even rather than harsh, so the light flatters the surfaces around it instead of flattening them.

What makes it worth the money is the detail you only notice in daily use. Touch-sensitive dimming lets you set the brightness exactly where you want it, from a soft evening glow to a clear working light. Three colour temperatures — warm, neutral and daylight — let you match the light to the time of day and the mood of the room. Energy-efficient LEDs run cool and last for years, giving a warm, even output with very little draw on the meter. Mounting hardware is included and the fitting is straightforward, so installation is a short job with a drill and a level.

It suits bedrooms, living rooms and hallways, and it makes a clear difference to a wall that currently does nothing. With 18 options to choose from, you can match it to a scheme you have already committed to. Fit it to a sound surface, stay within the recommended bulb rating, and switch off at the mains before installing or changing a lamp. Part of the CasaQuip home collection.
