Wall lamp ICE EGG C 8132 Nowodvorski

Nowodvorski ICE EGG C 8132 is a wall light with a rounded, egg-shaped white glass shade and a black mounting base made from lacquered aluminium. Its curved shade contrasts with the plain rectangular support rather than decorative arms. Part of the ICE EGG collection, it takes one replaceable G9 light source.

Choosing a bulb that fits

The bulb is supplied separately. Choose a G9 LED rated at no more than 10 W: this figure is the permitted bulb limit, not the consumption of a complete light supplied with a bulb. Physical size matters as well as the cap. Nowodvorski allows bulbs from other brands with a diameter no greater than 19.5 mm and recommends a light source with diffuse output. A G9 cap alone therefore does not establish that every bulb will fit.

The recommended Nowodvorski 7503 and 7504 bulbs provide 3000 K and 4000 K respectively. The choice lets you select a warmer or more neutral white, rather than being tied to a colour temperature built into the fitting. Brightness also depends on the bulb you choose. Compare its lumen output as well as its wattage when planning the light around a mirror or elsewhere on the wall.

Bathroom use and space beside the wall

The manufacturer identifies bathroom use, including placement alongside a mirror. Its IP44 rating must still be considered together with the installation rules for the relevant bathroom zone. This is an indoor fitting, not an exterior wall light. Its restrained form also suits supplementary lighting in a hallway, living room or bedroom.

The fitting measures 19 cm high and 13 cm wide and projects 18.5 cm from the wall. Allow for that projection when checking nearby cupboard doors. The black-and-white pairing and absence of ornament support modern and minimalist interiors.

Fixed installation and supplied components

The light mounts directly to the wall and operates on a 220–230 V supply. Instructions and a mounting kit are included; the electrical connection requires a qualified installer. Switch off the fitting and allow it to cool before cleaning, and keep moisture away from electrical connections.
