Marant is a Kichler bathroom wall light: a curved arm rises from a back plate with rounded corners and holds a cup of clear water glass — rippled and uneven, widening towards the top. The steel parts are finished in champagne bronze, a pale, warm tone close to gold. The fitting is distributed by Elstead Lighting.
Where to fit it
The light is 23.7 cm high, 12.7 cm wide and projects 16.6 cm from the wall. IP44 means protection against splashes from any direction, so the manufacturer intends it for the bathroom — its photos show a pair either side of the mirror above the basin. It also suits a hallway or dining room. It weighs 1.28 kg and is Class I, so the earth conductor must be connected.
Lamp and light
A 3 W G9 LED lamp is included, giving 300 lm at 3000 K — warm white that keeps faces in the mirror from looking grey. It is light for the mirror zone, not for the whole bathroom. The G9 lamp can later be replaced with another of up to 3 W. The fitting works with dimmable lamps, so with such a lamp and a dimmer the brightness can be adjusted.
The clear rippled glass does not hide the lamp — light passes through almost unimpeded, and the uneven surface breaks it into reflections on the wall.
Style
The shaped arm, classic cup and warm metal tone add up to a classic form that sits well next to gold or brass-coloured taps.
