Product Care Guide
Plaster
Dust with a soft, dry cloth only. Plaster is porous, so avoid all liquid cleaners — they'll stain or mark the surface. Raw plaster fittings can be painted: use a matte emulsion in two thin coats, allowing each to dry fully before powering on. Don't install in bathrooms or other damp areas unless the IP rating allows it.
Brass & metal
Brass develops a natural patina over time, which most people prefer. To keep the current finish, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For a brighter look, use a brass-specific polish sparingly. Never use lemon, vinegar, or abrasive cleaners — these damage lacquered brass irreversibly. Polished chrome and nickel finishes can be wiped with a damp microfibre cloth.
Glass
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly to avoid water marks. For stubborn marks, a mild glass cleaner is fine. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and fully cool before cleaning.
Fabric shades
Dust with a soft brush or vacuum on the lowest setting using an upholstery attachment. Avoid wet cleaning — fabric shades can stain, warp, or shrink. Spot-clean small marks only with a barely-damp microfibre cloth.
Ceramic
Glazed ceramic can be wiped with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Unglazed or matte ceramic should be kept dry and dusted only. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and cool first.
Before you clean
Switch off at the wall and let the fitting cool fully. Never spray cleaner directly onto a fitting — apply to a cloth first. If your fitting has visible wiring, electrical components, or LED drivers exposed, keep moisture well away from these areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Defoe recessed LED wall light need to be installed by a qualified electrician?
Yes, as this is a hardwired recessed wall light, it must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with UK Building Regulations Part P. The fitting requires cutting into the wall to create a recessed mounting point and connecting directly to your mains electrical circuit, which is notifiable electrical work in most areas of the home.
Can I replace the LED bulb in this wall light when it eventually fails?
No, this fitting uses an integrated 3W LED module which is built into the unit and cannot be replaced separately. Integrated LEDs typically last 25,000-50,000 hours, which equates to many years of normal use, but when the LED eventually fails, the entire fitting would need replacing rather than just changing a bulb.
Is this wall light dimmable with a standard dimmer switch?
The specifications do not indicate that this fitting is dimmable. Unless explicitly stated as dimmable, integrated LED fittings typically cannot be used with dimmer switches and may flicker, hum, or fail if connected to one. For full control, check with the manufacturer Gruppo F.T (Luce Ambiente e Design) before installation.
What are the exact recess depth and cutout dimensions needed for installation?
The fitting has a total depth of 140mm, so you'll need at least this much space behind your wall surface for the recessed installation. The visible faceplate measures 67mm wide by 169mm high. Specific cutout dimensions and installation instructions should be provided with the fitting or available from the manufacturer prior to cutting into the wall.
Can this recessed LED wall light be used in a bathroom?
No, this fitting is rated IP20, which means it has no moisture protection and is suitable for dry indoor locations only. For bathroom use, you would need a minimum of IP44 (or IP65 for zones 1 and 2), so the Defoe should be installed in bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, or other areas away from moisture.
How bright is the 300 lumen output and what colour is the light?
At 300 lumens from a 3W LED, this fitting provides focused task lighting rather than general room illumination—ideal as an adjustable reading spot beside a bed or chair. The colour temperature is 3000K, which produces a warm white light similar to traditional incandescent bulbs, creating a cosy, relaxing atmosphere rather than a clinical bright white.
