Verona

Yes, as this is a mains-wired wall light, installation must comply with UK Building Regulations Part P. Unless you are a competent person registered with an electrical self-certification scheme, you'll need a qualified electrician to carry out the wiring and connection to your mains supply. Most installations will also require a BESA box or backplate already in place on the wall.

The Verona holds two G9 bulbs, so total brightness depends on your bulb choice—pair of 3W LEDs will give around 500–600 lumens (soft ambient light), while 5W LEDs deliver roughly 900–1000 lumens for stronger illumination. Running two 5W G9 LEDs for 4 hours daily costs approximately £3–4 per year at current UK energy rates, making it an economical choice for hallway or living room accent lighting. G9 LEDs are widely available in warm white (2700K) or cool white tones to suit your décor.

Dimmability depends entirely on the bulbs you fit, not the fixture itself. If you install dimmable LED or halogen bulbs and have a compatible dimmer switch already in place, the Verona will dim successfully. Standard non-dimmable LEDs will not work with a dimmer and may flicker or fail.

No, the Verona has no stated IP rating and is specified for indoor use only, making it unsuitable for bathrooms where moisture and specific IP ratings (typically IP44 or higher) are required by UK wiring regulations. It's best suited for dry indoor areas such as hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms.

Specific dimensions are not provided in the available specifications, but as an up-down wall sconce with glass shades and antique brass metalwork, you should expect a compact to medium-sized fitting typical of traditional wall lights. We recommend contacting us directly or checking the product page for exact height, width, and projection measurements before purchasing.

For optimal lighting effect and visual balance, mount the Verona between 1.5 and 1.8 metres from floor level—this positions the fitting at eye level or slightly above, allowing the up-down light beams to wash the wall beautifully without glare. In hallways or beside beds, aim for the lower end of this range; in rooms with higher ceilings or above furniture, you can go slightly higher. The fitting stands 320mm tall, so factor this into your placement to ensure the light spread works with your ceiling height and room proportions.
