01 / The feeling
Lovely by day.
A little magic after dark.
Hand-cast in a small Portuguese studio, the Kiro is a wall light that behaves more like a piece of ceramics than a fitting. Its cone-shaped shade throws light both up and down, washing the wall above and below in a soft, glare-free glow rather than pointing a beam into the room. In Simple Black — a matt, light-absorbing black — it reads as quiet architecture by day and turns into a warm band of light after dark.
Patrícia Lobo casts, paints and glazes every Kiro by hand at LOBO Atelier, so slight variations in tone and surface are part of the piece and no two are quite the same. The Small measures 205mm wide x 120mm deep x 165mm high and takes one G9 bulb up to 40W (a 4W LED is ideal, bulb not included), dimmable with a dimmable bulb and compatible dimmer. Hardwired for indoor wall mounting. Made to order in Portugal.

Good to know
A few questions,
before it comes home.
Does the Kiro Ceramic Wall Light need to be installed by a qualified electrician?
Yes, as this is a hardwired wall light, installation falls under Part P of the UK Building Regulations and should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. The fitting will typically connect to a BESA box or standard back plate on your wall. It weighs 700g, so standard mounting onto a solid wall or suitable fixing should be sufficient.
Can this wall light be used with a dimmer switch?
Yes, the Kiro is dimmable, but you'll need to use a dimmable G9 bulb (sold separately) and ensure your dimmer switch is compatible with the bulb type you choose. LED G9 bulbs require LED-compatible dimmer switches, whereas halogen G9 bulbs work with traditional dimmers. Always check the bulb packaging for dimming compatibility.
What type of bulb does the Kiro Small take and is it included?
The Kiro uses a single G9 bulb, which is not included with the fitting. G9 is a small two-pin capsule bulb widely available in LED or halogen variants. Choose your preferred brightness and colour temperature—warm white (2700K-3000K) is typical for ambient wall lighting.
Can I use the Kiro Ceramic Wall Light in a bathroom?
No, this fitting is rated IP20, which means it's suitable for dry indoor areas only and not protected against moisture. For bathroom use, you'd need a minimum of IP44 (or IP65 for shower zones). The Kiro is ideal for hallways, living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas.
What are the dimensions of the Small Kiro wall light?
The Small Kiro measures 205mm wide, 165mm tall, and projects 120mm from the wall. This compact size makes it well-suited to narrower hallways, alcoves, or flanking a bed or mirror without dominating the space.
Does the Kiro wall light produce direct light or does it just wash the wall?
The Kiro's cone-shaped ceramic shade directs light both upwards and downwards, creating a soft wash on the wall rather than throwing light directly into the room. This produces a glare-free, ambient glow ideal for accent lighting or creating atmosphere, but it's not designed as a task light or primary light source.
