Cape 102893 is a wall light with a movable arm in a warm antique brass finish. The metalwork is brass plated and the inside of the conical shade is painted in the same tone – so the light bounced off the shade's interior comes out warmed rather than cool-white as it would from a conventional white lining.
An arm you can aim
This is the reason to buy a fitting like this rather than a cheaper fixed one. The arm rotates, letting you point the cone of light where it is wanted – at a book beside the bed, at a picture, sideways along the wall as indirect light. Projection from the wall is 22.4 cm, height 19.3 cm, width 15.8 cm; the fitting weighs 0.4 kg, so fixing needs no special anchors.
Dimming: what to know
Cape is dimmable, but has no dimmer of its own. Control works only when two conditions hold at once: the E14 lamp fitted is dimmable and the circuit has a dimmer rated for LED loads. The fitting itself solves nothing here – worth knowing before you buy, because an ordinary LED lamp not marked "dimmable" will flicker on a dimmer or fail to strike at all.
Light source
The E14 socket takes a lamp of up to 7 W; no bulb is supplied. The manufacturer recommends E14 LED filament lamps for this fitting – golf ball or candle. With the shade's interior in view, that choice is aesthetic as well as technical. Protection class II means double insulation, so no earth conductor is required.
The Cape family
Endon also makes Cape as a task floor lamp (Cape Task Floor) and as a pendant (Cape Pendant), and the wall light itself comes in a second finish. Bedside wall lights and a reading lamp can therefore share a room without mixing styles.
